'67 - '68 Repro/Aftermarket Cab Floor Carpet Question

[A1971Blazer]

If I recall correctly, the ones with the bolt-in high hump were either 4 speed on the floor or 4wd...(or both) the 3 speed and automatics had integral low hump floor.

That is kind of what I was thinking...... which means my truck has had some interesting changes over the years. I never did have an SPID, it was long gone from the glove box door when I got it but I do know that the VIN plate on the cab is obviously a 2WD (C). However I know the auto in it is not original because it is a TH350 and only the 2 speed powerglide and TH400s were available in '68. So it's very possible someone ditched the manual and stuck an original 3 spd auto column in the truck....

There's a multitude of possibilities for trucks that have been around for this long.
many of the 3 peed on the column were changed to either floor shift or auto when the linkage wore out in the column...
nothing wrong with the high hump version...it just, obviously, takes different carpet to fit correctly...

Ha, right? Question with that is, don't most of the K10 carpets available come with holes in them for at least the transfer case shift lever? Or is there a high hump carpet available out there that doesn't have any holes precut in the hump area?

I believe BBC/TH400 combos were high hump as well.

This could be a possibility as well..... My VIN does also call out that the truck was originally a V8 truck. I also know that there are no holes in the bolt on cover, it's just a solid cover.

I did notice that LMC's carpet selection says the high hump carpet's are for "2WD MODELS WITH FLOOR SHIFT • ALL 4WD • ALL BIG BLOCK (HIGH HUMP)"
