That's what I thought when I pulled the carpet out of my 69.  I only found
two little spots up front on both sides of the floor.  May not be as bad as
you think... then again it could be worse ;)

Holy crap.. after all the wiring I just did for my EFI, I can't imagine
doing anything like that.  Using Posi-Lok connectors is somewhat rigged in
my book.  The only thing duct tape should be used for would be to hold down
your wiring once it is inside some flexible conduit!

Your pressure washing the carpet has me intrigued.  However, I'm pretty sure
I'm gonna find some depressing floor rot if I take mine out.  My carpet
looks like crap after having an oil pressure line fail and also a heater
core in the past 15 years.

I took that carpet out and pressure washed it.  Overall it made a huge
difference.  It didn't get all the nasty stains out but it looks 100 times
better.  Thanks for the suggestions!

On another note, I know you all appreciate good wiring.  Check out the sweet
duct tape job I found on the stereo.  I found after taking the pic and
working on it that they just looked crimped, the connections were just
sitting in there with little pieces of duct tape stuffed in... nicceee.
