Hey Lawbreaker, I got them from Classic Industries since I'm in their (SoCal) area, but PY & Ames carry them also. Repop of the '70-'72 mats. Personally, I think they're overpriced, but as for now, 'it's the only game in town'.

Yes. Came (if ordered) in '70, '71, ,72. I had a new '72 back then, & it had the factory mats. The repop ones appear identical, but are of a lighter construction, as the original ones were of the heavy rubber that GM used in their different model lines.

Here's my 73 SD455 T/A. I bought it around 1988. It has been a garaged NC car since new. The car has the original engine, automatic, a/c, power windows, power door locks, etc. The only non-original items are the exhaust and stereo system.

Here's a different red 73 T/A.

This one is a 455 4-spd car with factory a/c. It was also a very nice car that tangled with a jacked up 4x4 pickup.
