[TR] TR2 carpet set suggestions

[gandcanderson at comcast.net]

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.
