Nothing freshens up the look of a classic car like installing new carpets. So when our project ’68 Chevelle returned to the street after spending some time as a dedicated race car, we knew a fresh carpet would help this car return to it roots as a die-hard street machine.

Join Ross Kiehl and Mar Simpson as they install a fresh set of threads on the floor of out ground pounding Chevelle.
