Looks great, Mad. I've done my own carpets... the '54 is relatively flat. Yours looks more challenging. Door panels are an improvement. Keep it up!

enthusiastically, himmelberg

I see you've had a busy day - looking good and I'm sure the truck will be quieter. I've never seen a gas pedal carpeted before - interesting touch. I don't think I'd add it to the brake and clutch pedals tho. You don't want your foot slipping off either one at the wrong time. Carpet can be slick at times. Keep up the good work!

Several places offer a shifter boots - Sacto Vintage, Mac's, etc.

You might try Mac's. 800 777 0948 Part Number B7C-2457-A at $6.95

Let me know if you come up with them - they're the same ones my '62 uses.

The floor certainly looks more uniform. I just pulled out the yellow/brown **** rug that the PO had put into mine. I've got floor work to do before I put in carpet. Did you put your carpet under the seat to the gas tank as well?
