Carpet

I sure am glad I found this Northern Chapter.I am looking forward to meeting others with the same style truck and sharing ideas and etc. etc.
My truck is the custom model and has a 4 speed tranny.I would like to put carpet in. I think it is going to be a problem with the high hump of the 4 speed. If anyone has done this I sure could use you advice on how you make it lay flat at the bouttom of that hump.Looks like this is going to be a problem area.

There are some carpet kits available that account for the hump. I will be watching this thread to see if there is a cheaper way as..., well..., I'm cheap. Mine needs new carpet too.
What year and model truck do you have?

I found a carpet place that looks good to me. They have a molded carpet for these trucks.I think they are one of the sponsers of FTE I can't give a web link, But I think I can on a PM.
I measured the hump in this truck 77 F250 custom model. I put a level not to the shifter then musured to the floor and I got 7 1/2" I guess that would be an 8.
