69Midd4Stang 10 Report post Posted May 14, 2014 The current carpet in my convertible has both the heal and toe pad. It looks to be the original carpet but it may not. Suppliers of new carpet have advise that 1969 did not come with the toe pad but they can add one if needed. Did the 69 models come with our without the toe pad as I am looking to replace mine with the correct style for my car? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian Conway 264 Report post Posted May 14, 2014 (edited) The 69 Mach 1 came with the ' special carpet ' with red sewn in floor mats. When I replaced my OE carpet it had the floor mats and no toe pad. I do remember the carpet had the C9--- numbering stenciled on the bottom. Other 69 model mustangs did not have the floor mats. If your carpet is original it will have the stenciled part number on it. Be sure to look for your build sheet under the seats, my car, and under the carpet.

69Midd4Stang 10 Report post Posted May 14, 2014 I had not thought of the part number and will check for this. With all that I am hearing it would appear that this may not be the original carpet to the car. No evidence of why it would have been changed over but one never knows unless you are lucky enough to be the original owner. I was hoping to find the build sheet, but sadly I could not locate it when I was removing the carpet. I remain optimistic that I might find it elsewhere as I have heard they can be tucked away in other areas of the car. Thanks for the feedback! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

buening 63 Report post Posted May 15, 2014 Does it look like this? This is from CJ Pony and is ACC brand carpet: From what I can tell is an original Grande Coupe: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
69Midd4Stang 10 Report post Posted May 15, 2014 That is the one that is currently in my car and needs to be replaced. Interesting comment on the Grande version. I will see what my local suppliers say about that aspect of the puzzle. Cheers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buening 63 Report post Posted May 15, 2014 The one below it (green) was from what I can tell a plain jane coupe. From what I can tell the ACC carpet matches pretty well to the originals in the pics. The ACC isn't exclusive to CJPony either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
