Post by: Andy D on May 18, 2017, 07:12:00 PM
Does anyone know of a source for a 1939 Cadillac front carpet heal pad?

You didn't say what model and there is a lot of variation in the carpet and/or rubber floor mats done depending on model.  I believe the 39 big series cars did have a rubber heal pad in the Moss Tread carpet.  Here is one that works for that.  It is only listed for 37-38 but I think it is the same in 39.

The car is a series 61 convert. Carpeting was an option over the rubber mat with carpet inserts. I do not know if the optional carpet even had a heel pad, but some believe it did. Thanks for your reply and any other information you can provide will be helpful.
