Trunk Carpet

[schuyler]

I have a 1963 Avanti. In the trunk area to the left of the spare tire storage is a indentation in the trunk floor for a lug wrench. Question, when the car came from the factory was that lug wrench covered by the carpet? Was the carpet glued down or loose to give access to the wrench?. Or, did the carpet have a "L" shaped opening that exposed the wrench? Thank you!

I acquired my Avanti in 1972..............the lug wrench was / is under the carpet.

The carpet was loose. The jack and handle were in the wheel well under the plywood access door.

He is asking about the LUG WRENCH. The jack and the folding handle had to go in with the spare tire so they could rattle around unsecured.
