Will a pre-cut carpet kit for a 1980 F150 fit a 68 F100. Both 3 on the tree.
Thanks

the 3 spd has a low hump in the center. the 73-79 started witht the high hump on the trucks. so the 80-86 will have a high hump also. so the hump area will be too high to fit down over a low hump. unless it is cut in the middle and the excess trimmed off. then it might fit.

Bummer. :cry: Thanks. I found a new one for 25.00 and thought it might work. Oh well.

The 80-up cabs had both high and low humps like ours, fm. Just looked at an 82 cab out back and the low floor is similar but the tunnel seems to be a little rounder under the dash forward of where the high hump plate would mount.

Found another carpet but it was made for a 65 with gas tank outside cab? Everything else same. Would this fit?
