Carpet once more

Well I have the new carpet in hand I ordered from ACC. I ordered the
76 Cosworth Vega passenger area (p/n 2700) and the cargo area (p/n
2702) carpet sets for my 76 Cosworth. I took the passenger area
carpet and laid it front to rear across the roof to get an idea if it
is the correct length and it appears that it is correct. The cargo
area set on the other hand has a slight problem. The main piece that
covers the spare tire hatch fits fine. The small piece that gets
glued to the hinged metal panel on the rear seat is a bit on the
small side. Fortunately I ordered an extra 2 yds of material that I
am going to have incorporated into the rear seat cover. With the
excess I will have a new panel piece cut and finished to match the
original.

Colorwise I ordered the Dark saddle and it appears to look darn close
to the orignal in the unfaded spots.

Here are the measurements of the small rectangular piece. The
original is 36 3/4 by 9 5/8 inches. The replacement from ACC is 36
1/2 by 8 3/8 inches. A quarter inch on the length is no big deal,
but an inch and an eighth is quite a bit on the width.
