What covered the floorboards on late 1920s dodges?

[Guest BretK]

I need to replace the non original rubber floormat in my 28 dodge coupe. There is the original fiber insulating blanket, but what was the covering? Ribbed rubber, linoleum or what?

thanks,

It was either carpet or rubber floormat or a combination of both I.E. rubber in the front and carpet in back or vise versa, I can tell you for sure later on tonight but if I had to guess for your bodystyle it would be carpet throughout especially since you mention the fiber blanket

In a coupe, I would imagine rubber mat. The design? dunno. Doubt anyone repro's it.

Here's a link to a '28 Dodge Victory Six coupe and if you scroll down there is a picture of the matting that looks original.....not 100% sure....I don't know of anyone else that reproduces this either. http://forums.aaca.org/f143/woo-hoo-i-am-now-dodge-350670.html

I have looked but cannot find the answer, I do not know why I made the comment about the jute pad, either way it would have been there, carpet or rubber, for some reason I was thinking DA coupe used carpet up front, I was wrong after looking thru my parts books, maybe I am incorrect about your car using carpet up front, will keep looking for a definitive answer with picture. Let me know if you get the answer before I am able.
