1962–1964 Plymouth Savoy Carpet & Floor Mat Replacement – Buyer's Guide

July 07, 2025

The early 1960s Plymouth Savoy is a beloved choice for Mopar enthusiasts seeking lightweight performance, classic styling, or nostalgic family car restorations. Whether you're restoring a two-door drag car with a 4-speed or refurbishing a 4-door cruiser, new interior carpet can dramatically improve comfort, cleanliness, and resale value. This buyer’s guide covers all available floor mat and carpet replacement options for the 1962, 1963, and 1964 Savoy.

Original Carpet Construction

These Savoys came equipped with loop pile carpet from the factory, a tight-weave style commonly used in 1960s Chrysler vehicles. All molded carpet kits listed here replicate the OEM loop texture and include attached jute padding for underfoot cushioning and sound insulation.

Each molded kit is thermoformed to the original floor pan shape, ensuring a best-matching fit. No trimming is required in most cases aside from minor adjustments around shifter tunnels or kick panel areas.

Mass Backing Option

Because these are molded kits, you can optionally upgrade to mass backing, a thick rubberized layer bonded to the back of the carpet. It adds thermal insulation, sound deadening, and rigidity for a smoother installation. Mass backing is available on all molded carpet kits below. It is not available for die-cut floor mats.

Matching Floor Mats

Factory Interiors also offers 4-piece loop floor mat sets cut to fit the Savoy’s front and rear footwells. These are available for both 4-speed and automatic configurations and feature logo embroidery options. Floor mats are die-cut and do not include jute or mass backing.

Installation Tips & Best Practices

  • Prep the surface: Vacuum the metal floor, remove old insulation, and inspect for rust before starting installation.
  • Test fit first: Lay the carpet in the car before trimming. Use factory anchor points as your guide.
  • Drill in reverse: For clean mounting holes, run a drill bit in reverse through the carpet backing.
  • Warm to reduce wrinkles: Let molded kits sit in sunlight or gently heat them to make shaping easier.
  • Label removed parts: Keep track of seat bolts, trim screws, and fasteners during disassembly.

DIY or Professional?

Many classic car owners prefer the hands-on satisfaction of a DIY installation. If your Savoy has floor pan rust, an aftermarket tunnel, or you want show-level results, a local upholstery shop, restoration garage, detailer, or trusted mechanic is a great option for professional installation.

Why Replace Your Carpet?

Common motivations include:

  • Heavy wear and tear on original 1960s carpet
  • Stains, fading, or mildew from leaks or humidity
  • Show car restoration or period-correct restorations
  • Increasing resale value for auction or trade-in
