Hello. I am looking for complete carpet sets for a 1973 Chateau 123 and a 1974 Chateau 123. Yes I have googled and yes I have called some of the manufacturers without any luck. I do have access to some local interior shops but I am trying to match the OE fit as much as possible. I would like to have a molded and fitted carpet set as original. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

And, like many here, I need exterior window surround rubber for pop-out windows.
Please PM if you have anything.

Our carpet is not available anywhere. I looked. I ended up having a local shop fit my front carpeting. That will be your best bet.

Found it. However it is sewn and not moulded. They offer a complete set includind all wheelhouse covers and doghouse. I ordered one so I will let you know how it fits. Authentic 80/20 loop. Not cheap.

All I see there is expensive molded black rubber for the front, no carpet. ??

That's what I thought......so I called them. Look at the 69-91's. Even though they lump different platforms into the range of years, they told me that the specific fit for the 2nd gen is unique and included in that range. You just need to designate the right year and van length. We will see as I will report when I get mine. There is an upcharge for 80/20 loop and also for any special color like my bright blue.

WTF? Ha! I saw that & then it went right past me. Seems strange that they would put the 2nd gen with the 3rd. made me suspicious. Spendy stuff!
