I am trying to help somebody source new factory appearing carpet for their 56 Dodge. He has the black, white and silver "542" interior and the carpet is a black and white speckled thing. (See below).

I know that this has been discussed before but I can't find the thread. I am imagining that it was called "Jamaica" or "Caribbean" or something similar ???

Stock interiors does not list it:

There is a "Trinidad" carpet, but it was a darker black and the speckles were a bright white. Danny (57burb) used it in his '57 New Yorker.

Thanks Nathan. I was close, i.e. Jamaica, Caribbean, etc. Just not Trinidad. Close but no cigar
