ACC= Auto Custom Carpets
http://www.accmats.com/

Their products are sold by MANY vendors, such as Legendary interiors, Rockauto, Ground Up, etc, etc.
Shop around for the best price, and remember shipping can be expensive. Buying at a local swap meet is a great idea.
A carpet for a Chevelle automatic is same as our GS with auto or 4 speed.

Another good carpet vendor is Trim Parts.

This might be it!.... ACC set in Gunmetal Gray, sold by 1aauto:
http://www.1aauto.com/search?model=149&page=2&q=carpet&year=1965
$159 with free shipping.

Edit: Rockauto is $120 plus approx $13 shipping. They don't list gray, but I've read they can get other colors, just call and ask.
Don't forget to use the 5% discount code, which you can find with a Google search.

Another Edit:  The ACC site shows a Gunmetal Gray #22 and a Charcoal Gray #35.  :dontknow:

For accuracy the red interior with plad floor mats I had pictured has a few originality issues.

Aftermarket Radio / Speakers with cropped door panel stainless that I later replaced with correct door panels.

Aftermarket gauges and steering wheel wrap.

OK, gotcha Milt, Thanx for explaining!  :occasion14:

WALT... thanx for the links.  I am looking at both Gunmental and Charcoal on the ACC site link...   The Gunmental looks a little too light so I am thinking Charcoal would be better..... :dontknow:

ANY INPUT from you guys on correctness and/or preferences???  :glasses9:

The gray carpet I just put in was from A.C.C. (American carpet co.), #158 Charcoal.


Al, I don't see a #158 Charcoal on the ACC site.... only a #35 Charcoal .

What vendor did you buy it from? ACC site shows much higher prices.

Bought directly from ACC, it was listed under the Chevelle 2 dr. it possibly was on sale as I also bought the underlayment at the same time.

Will look for the invoice later this week. We have just moved and things are in disarray.

You get a better price on the carpet if you buy it through Year-One instead of direct through ACC.  I talked to them one time about that and they do it to protect their dealers.  They will sell it to you direct, but you are going to pay more for it that way.

All

This is as good a time as any to make a correction on a post I made a while ago on my white interior 65 GS HT Automatic with white Exterior.

I wouldn't want to keep incorrect information out their for people using the search function.

After the SUN came out my BLACK automatic console turned into a very dark gray.

Cheers
