My Model T is now "offically" a Luxury car !

[F Body]

I was out in the T this morning when I took a phone call from Management, luckily just for a change I was stopped at Greg's,  because the first owner forgot to order the bluetooth option

So Management doing her good deed for the day had taken a load of clothes and shoes to the clothing bank. However when she went to put them into the container there was a roll of car carpet standing besides it, too big to fit inside.
Now with her years of hearing me rabbit on about health & safety, she immediately realise that it was a serious trip hazard, so rang me for urgent H&S advice
I suggested that she put it into the back of her car and bring it home, so that I could conduct a through Risk Asessment

As luck would have it, my Risk Assessment showed it to be a brand new roll of car type carpet, approx 2m wide x 3m long, my years of finely turned Health & Safety experience kicked in and I devised a quick and easy countermeasure to reduce any hazards ?

I'd cut it up to fit the Model T

First remove the floor boards :

Use as a marking template :

Then cut out the carpet (safety first always ask a responsible adult for guidance before using scissors or knifes)  :

Stick down with some spray glue last used to fix the headlining in the GMC van. Note : A further task completion Risk Assessment revealed a likely hood of the carpet strips fouling the pedals, so the carpet was cut back around the pedal box area.

Finally Management gave it a once over with the vacuum, the Model T is now "officially" a Luxury car with fitted carpet

Looks nice, but as you have no roof, is it not going to get really wet and mildew?

Only if it rains

NB : I fully intend to drive it in the first snow of the year, but it's not the sort of car you drive in the rain
