I did a lot of research on ACC. Make sure you have a "current" sample of what ever carpet they have that you are considering. I toyed with what carpet to purchase for several years. I was not in a hurry, and ordered the same color sample from several of their vendors. The samples all had a year printed on a piece of paper attached to the sample. When I compared the various year samples of the same color carpet from ACC, they were slightly different in color, by year.
Make sure you have the current year sample!
When I inquired with the various vendors that sell ACC carpet, I would ask how much additional carpet I could purchase. I needed ('57 Ranchero) addition carpet for the lower portion of the doors, the lower portion of the console, a portion of the kick panels and the lower portion of the bulkhead, between the cab and the truck bed. I also wanted additional material in order to make two sets of carpeted floor mats.
The standard response to my request was TWO additional yards. I wanted more than that.....4 yards.So I kept trying and I got lucky and found a ACC vendor that would and could sell me more. That vendor is Automotive Interiors (800-814 7533) Belchertown MA.. I believe that my friend that will be doing the upholstery work, will not need the pre-cut and sewn carpet set I purchased,given that there is a console,and my Ranchero has flat floors. The carpeting can be
accomplished with the additional material I purchased, and I'll sell the pre-cut and sewn carpet set. BTW, the set is Red.
Regardless of the location of the ACC vendor, the carpet ships from Alabama.
Hope this helps.

Automotive Interiors is who I got my headliner from. Couldn't have been happier all the way around.

I have used ACC in five builds over the years.  Perfect fit on every build.  The 65 Bird was a unique color and fit, perfect.  Very happy with their product.

DM me about the third row seat parts. I have a parts car that is a 1957 Country Sedan, 9 passenger.  I may have the parts you need.  I am on the other side of the country, so shipping may be expensive.
