A short while ago, someone did a Pay it Forward thread and I thought it was a cool idea but promptly forgot about it.

Earlier this week, I was having some work done in my basement and discovered some interior stuff for my '69 that I've never used, frankly forgotten that I had, and now want to get rid of.  Here's the deal:  1st person to PM me, gets the item.  I will ship it USPS to whatever address you supply (continental US only).  All I ask in return is that you reimburse me for the shipping once you receive the item (if you don't, bad karma will follow you for 7 years).  Oh, only 1 item per customer - because I want to spread the love.

Here's what I have:

1 pair front seat foam (2 buckets), Year One, brand new in box. (Gone to r_biccum)

1 set of carpet, light tan color, also Year One, brand new in box.  (Gone to Daytona R/T SE)

1 used passenger upper door pad, tan color, small tear near wing window.  Includes emblem (Gone to mikepmcs)

If I find anything else, I will update the thread. (Thanks to all that responded.)

Peace.

Neal

Another cool gesture of giving from a member.  Very cool.   :2thumbs:  Wow, new bucket seat pads.  I could've used those.

Chuck...brand new tan carpet for your '68! Your General will love you! Neal, I will put dibs on it until Mr. April 1st gets to this thread. I'm guessing that it is correct for a General Lee (a '68 edition, that is!  :rofl:)

Nice gesture Neal.  :2thumbs:
I would like to get upper door pads for my Charger and recover them myself.  I don't know if I can find the same material that the hack who put my car together used though.  I was thinking this door pad might be a good way to find out.  So, please, if you still have it I'd like to try.  If it doesn't turn out I will offer it back up for free on the site. 
Thank you for doing this Neal!

Enjoy the gear, guys.  I will ship Friday via USPS.  When it arrives, please send me a check for the postage on the sticker (my cost).

To those that didn't get stuff, apologies & good luck with your projects.

Best, Neal

Awesome news, Chris!!  That was fast - I just mailed it Friday from NorCal.

Rather than continue to gather dust in my basement, I'm just glad to get it someone who can use it on a project.  Post a pic sometime, once it's installed!

Cheers!

Thanks Neal.  Received the door pad yesterday and it's perfect for my little experiment.  Hopefully it will be on my Charger someday.  Check mailed this morning. :cheers:

Mike:

It obviously looks better than it did a week ago - ripped and forgotten in my basement.  What's your opinion of the results and did they meet your expectations?

My expectations weren't too high considering I was a one person show and really couldn't stretch it tight enough.  Also, it's near impossible to duplicate the relief pattern on the old one without a machine of some sort to vac/bond it to the foam.  I got a smidge of detail in there and it looks 100 times better than mine which was ridiculous. It suits my needs and happy with my results and very grateful to you for giving it to me.  I am now looking for a driver side pad to match em up. :2thumbs: :icon_smile_big:  Thanks again

My conclusion is it is a good driver quality job I completed. Only reason I won't go higher than that is because I can't duplicate the design on the pad itself.  It's already on my car. :2thumbs:

Righteous!!

I'd thought the same thing - it looks 1000 times better!!  Maybe not perfect for high buck resto, but very presentable for a driver.
