Friday Night
My Friday night this week: Work until 10pm & then rip the dash out.
In life: Drink great beer & work on great cars. Tonight: a French Farmhouse Ale & my euro '72 350SL. Things have been rough lately. Cars & life. But somedays..., you get to drive with the top down.

lol! Thanks. Most of the interior will be a looker from about 5ft once I get some new floor mats & a dash cover.
Once I get her washed & waxed the exterior will be a looker from about 20ft. If the car is passing you at 70mph.

Hey, nobody has a source for early R107 trunk mats do they? I'm talking pre-carpet trunks. Mine was like really really dirty shattered peanut brittle. And is now in a thousand disgusting pieces. I found a place that does custom mats and they'd do one if they had the right dimensions etc. Does anyone have like a mock-up/plans of what one for that? Mine is in too many pieces to properly measure...

That interior turned out great.
Alas........I could never own one. I'm like PigPen. Dirt finds me.

I'll let you know what I find on the trunk mat. I haven't found ANYWHERE that is currently making one, but I have a place that may make me one...
Come over anytime, melted!

A tracing would help immensely. But I know what you mean about not getting it out in one piece. I think the biggest challenge in making one is the pocket that goes down in the passenger side footwell...
Is there just have a hole in the rubber mat over the spare tire bump?
