I am putting in the overdrive tranny hump and would like to know what carpet people have ordered for 4 door 66 (63-66 A-bodies I think) Dart Stationwagons.

These guys are one of the largest manufacturers of repro carpets but I have definitely seen cheaper carpet kits. Closer to $120.00. http://www.accmats.com/Commerce/Search.aspx

The carpet kits usually come as a two piece that over lap in the middle. My only worry would be that they would be too short if you got the 2dr kit since the 2dr and 4dr kits are different part #s. Their tech people might be able to shine some light on this for you.

By the way, I also found the same kits from Summit Racing for $136.00

Yeah there are kits as low as $109 on sale right now. The problen as you say is that only the 2 door and GT kits offer the 4 speed option. I'll have to call them

There is no difference in the 63-66 A bodies between 2dr and 4dr, regarding floor pans. Darts (non-wagon) are 111" WB and Valiants/Wagons/Bcudas are 106".

I ended up doing it myself with flat carpet off a roll (kits didn't have the correct color)
