: "Proper" 70 SS floor mats?

Anyone have details on floor mats for a 1970 SS? Did it come with them? If so, what did they look like? Did the color vary based on the interior? Exterior? Where the SS floor mats different from the non-SS mats?

Anyone know if any of the standard providers (Ground Up, YearOne, and so on) have accurate repros?

Thanks!

I got these (http://www.yearone.com/serverfiles/part.asp?pid=FM43BLU&c=1&e=0&cat=0&hid=011AA47752) (in black) from Year One.

I don't like them very much. Had to trim them to fit, and the back seat ones still seem too big.

I'm going to replace mine with a set of carpeted ones someday.

So, I'm hearing that those are the "proper" ones, but that they kinda suck for the purpose (i.e. too big, need to be trimmed, and so on). :D

Hmmm... Maybe we'll go with non-proper for these then. I like some of the ones offered with carpet and such that have a nice red SS logo on them. smile.gif

Thanks for the info!
