I have a connection for the carpet but they are 4 to 6 weeks out, does anyone have a faster/better connection/company? Thanks Ryan
Ryan, These folks ship in 24-48 hours, here is a link: http://www.auto-interior.com/mercury4.htm#Comet
Ryan...I would'nt let that discourage me from picking up the phone and talking with them. I don't know your Comet Wagon's details, but did it have a carpeted cargo area? Some wagons did, some do not. They could be of help to you, you'll never know without a call.
Definitely call and verify if the 4 door version will work... When I ordered the carpet for my wagon, it turned out it was identical to the 4 door sedan carpet, but they leave "tails" at the rear outboard edges to cover the areas beneath the folding rear seat mechanism (not seen or required on the sedan).
Ten years ago I think there was really only one well known manufacturer that made molded carpet sets for 60's cars. Now there are other options. I have heard that there is one manufacturer that gives you a little extra material from door to door than the others, so its easier to get a good fit and still have enough to fit up under the sill plates at the doors. Also, you should make sure you don't get a cheap carpet that will fade the first time its parked in the sun, or which the dye won't come off on your feet if it gets a little damp. Unfortunantly, I haven't bought carpet since the days that there was really only one manufacturer of carpet for most 60's cars.

ACC I think Thanks gentlemen, and I think you are right Glenn I met the guys from ACC at SEMA and asked them about carpet for the wagon as well as extra yardage for the cargo area, I will give em a call tomorrow and give you all an update, Thanks again Ryan

Found Some Well i called ACC today and they didnt have the wagon kit, they recommended these guys, right here near me. I called and they make em to order as needed. Will be sent out tomorrow or the next day, I will let you know how it turns out. I order the pass compartment as well as the piece for the back of the seat and the cargo area, bright red.....
