      new carpet

      looking at buying new carpet to finish out the inside on my 67 camaro. They offer a 80-20 loop and a cut pile. What do you guys think looks better?

      80-20 loop ... I think cut pile would look out of place in a '67
      (to put it nicely ).

      I think it depends on what else you are doing for interior. Are you doing aftermarket seats, custom door panels? I put different seats and stock door panels in my 69 camaro and went with cut pile.

      I dont have a picture of the two different styles.

      My interior is stock looking but under the car is a whole different animal.

      Thanks for the helps guys. Looks like I will get the 80-20.

      Of course you have you noticed all the 80/20 that's being used in new cars?

      Just like anything else, carpet has also improved since 1967.
