Wilton Wool Carpet
Thinking of having a set of carpets made in wool like the originals. Anyone know the difference between the I, II and III?

Re: Wilton Wool Carpet
Dean used to sell a set a few/several years ago for around $700 IIRC. I’d be interested in something like that.

Nice, any photos? What’s the timeline?

I got it for the 64 last year, made a big difference to me as far as being original vs the later kits.Curtis wrote: Thu May 09, 2024 10:59 am To resurrect this thread I just ordered wool carpet. They moved to Texas. $637 delivered.

Re: Wilton Wool Carpet
Pictures?
It sounds like a great upgrade. No fault of the vendors but the Distinctive Industries is not very impressive. I don't know about other companies; my guess is they are similar. Custom made sounds better. Hats off to Distinctive Industries for making all the other trim though.
With that said, my Distinctive Industries carpet has lasted 10 years but I keep her pretty well kept and she doesn't get outdoor exposure unless she's in motion..

Re: Wilton Wool Carpet
I have the DI carpet in the car I'm driving. I just don't like the loop. It looks cheap.
