Could someone tell from where I should find a carpet for my 1952 Hornet
Contact KANTER in NJ, 1-800-526-1096. They make carpets and have color choice and material. Walt.
Got mine from Bob Rosol in NJ. He is a club member and has excellent carpet that fits perfect.
Don,
I couldn't find Bob's email address. Please, would you help.
I bought 3 sets of carpet and two convertible tops from Bob. Great to work with and everything fits great. Give him a call.

It's quite expensive to phone from Finland to U.S.
Does someone know Bob Rosol's email address
The club database and roster don't list an email address for Bob.
I've called Bob and left a message on your behalf, Jaakko. I asked if he has an email address you can use.
Park,
thank you very much.
Jaakko, I spoke with Bob Rosol, and he is not able to work with orders from outside the USA. Is there no shop near you that could make a carpet for you? If you wish, tell me what color carpet you need, then I can contact Kanter Company and see if they have a suitable color, and also the cost of mailing a carpet to you. (I have a Kanter carpet in my '51). My email pwald@comporium.net.
Park, thank you very much. You have been very helpful. Do you remember the price of Bob Rosol's carpet?
I know some finnish people in U.S.. They have helped me sometimes in similar cases. They can call to Bob Rosol and order carpet to U.S. address and ship then to me.
I have ordered things from U.S. several hundred times and very seldom met sellers who will not sell overseas
I have ordered some years ago carpets from Kanter for my previous cars and they will ship overseas.Those didn't fit very well and for this reason I try to find another supplier.
Thanks to all of you who have helped me in this case
Jaakko, Bob Rosol's price estimate was about $175, which is quite reasonable. So it seems your best choice is to have one of your US contacts work with Bob on making and shipping a carpet.
I've had the same experience as you have done with Kanter, regarding the fit. (There is an excellent upholsterer near me, but he's quoted me $400 for a front carpet.)
