Fred,

I have had good luck with John Skinner in the UK. I have talked to Jonathon 
Skinner via email and he provides good service, good quality of carpet at a 
competitive price. You must specify that you do not want the rubber heel mat on 
both sides of the front floor if you do not want it because otherwise it comes 
with it on both sides. As well their carpet is bound all around, if you do not 
want that, you have to specify it.

Heritage is of very high quality, I have purchased theirs before, but you pay 
dearly for it as well. I have found the original style of carpet, with the Jute 
backing difficult to work with and no more durable than the style that has 
rubber backing in modern carpets.


Jean

Guys,
After searching the archives, there does not seem to be a clear cut opinion of 
who supplies good carpet sets.  There are pros and cons on Heritage, Moss and 
Sport and Classics as well as others.

I have sent emails to Heritage and they have not responded about their 
carpeting.  I always thought they were the premier supplier but no responses 
from them.

What are the experiences of list on very good carpet for a 66 BJ8 and 
suggestions of recent experiences with suppliers.

Thanks,

Fred
