You will probably end up making patterns. I used manila folders and lots of masking tape. You can cut and whittle until you get the fit you want. When you get it done you want to be able to lay it flat so you can cut it out of a flat piece of carpet. You will end up cutting it on most of the peaks and valleys. I made up some for mine and gave it to an upolstery shop. They used the patterns to make carpet for my 72. It turned out great.

A friend took his Bronco to the same shop. He said he wasn't going to make patterns and was unhappy with the results.
