Ford started out with carpet in all the higher end cars in 1928 but slowly went more to rubber mats in 1929. The Fordor and Deluxe types kept carpets. A good book to have is "The Ford Model A As Henry Built It" by the old Ford guys George DeAngelis, Edward P. Francis, and Leslie R. Henry. It lists all the upholstery trim, interior colors, and exterior colors for all models.

I would make my own if I just had to have a carpet. I would sew a border around all the edges to hold it together.
