I'm wondering if anyone has had experience between the carpet sets from John 
Skinner (from England) and sets from TRF?

i agree with the rubber flooring. My TR2 had rubber on the floor and carpet on 
the tunnel only. And those plugs on the floor arent really for the jack, they 
are water drain holes ?

I did my TR3 in the TRF supplied tufted nylon. I didn?t want the interior 
smelling like a wet sheep every time it rained. Shadow blue carpet with 
midnight blue trim.

I'm finally getting to my TR2 interior and am trying to go as original as 
practical. I hope to be ready for TRA this June. 





Carpet selection has me confused. We all know it will get wet and it will need 
to get removed to dry it out. So for me Wool is not a good idea, has anyone had 
experience with the tufted synthetic carpet set from TRF? Does it look totally 
different than Wilton wool? Are there better "Wilton wool" substitutes out 
there? 





My car ice blue and the interior will be geranium color as original - Does 
anyone have a good reference for geranium color for vinyl and carpet? 





The seat covers which I bought from TRF several years ago (kept in plastic bag 
out of the sun) are a rather bright shade of red.... I'm worried I've got a bad 
color match here. 





On the TRF site -- for carpet they offer a bright red or a dark red -- which 
one? 





As always, Thanks!!! 





54 TR2 - painted, engine out, transmission finished 


63 TR4 - driver -- re-timing the BPNW cam that was installed incorrectly 


73 TR6 - mechanical resto complete - waiting for bodywork 


69 TR6 - No floors but body metal looks reasonable.
