Restoring '69 Nova rubber floor covering???
 
Hi guys,

My original rubber floor covering in my '69 L78 Nova (base black interior) should be savable. Its a 24,000 mile car and the floor covering is in good shape except where they cut it to place a floor shifter on the trans tunnel and a couple of other small rips here and there.

I've heard the reproduction floor covering is junk, so my question is does anyone know of anyone that can "restore" my floor covering?

Or, is there anyone selling a repro piece that fits well or a NOS piece?

Thanks

Tom,
Can you send me the same e-mail/Info? My mat has 2 small tears in it. Probably better shape than Paul's, but I would still like to fix it.

I've had good success with bicycle tube repair kits, apply from the underside of the rubber mat to 'seal' the small tear.

That works well. To brighten them up to their original look spray them with SEM rubber bumper coater. It's dead on.

Fast set urethane and some rubber roofing.
