Title: Factory Mat
Post by: Richard Grizzle on 2023-06-02 15:33
I am trying to Keep my 1957 Custom as stock as possible. I came with the rubber mat and juke padding on it. I have not yet found the rear half of the mat. I wiil try to check in here more often to read responses. Thanks for any help in finding one in advance.

Probably something you need to set a search for on eBay.  I missed the opportunity to get a rubber one for my Cadillac.  But it was years on the search.

I do not believe it was re-produced for the rear. I understand that some people will purchase flat stock in a similar grain and make one one that way.

As Lynn said, not available that I know of for the rear. Seems odd doesn't it, if they make the front one? I did double-check with www.classicautoparts.com, and only found the front.

They are not reproduced.Only can be found if you get lucky  with a NOS unit..... 
Yes,. folks use a similar grain mat for the rear.

    I got lucky and found a Ford pick up in the junk yard a few years ago.  The pattern matches my new repro mat nicely.  All it needed was some trimming.
