Rubber floor mat for 61 Suburban

[Dadsktruck]

I introduced my 1961 K1001 Suburban I inherited from my dad (the original owner) in general discussion. The rear mat is in good condition and I know I can get front mat, high hump, that is common with the pickup
What I don’t know is what to do with the area behind the front seat that’s the foot well for the second row seat. Right now it just metal, no covering, and I don’t remember growing up with the truck if there was every anything covering or it was that way since new.
So, what’s suppose to be there and has someone found a replacement If there is something to replace?

My '62 Suburban has a bare, painted steel floor between the first and second rows of seats like yours. I doubt that any of the Suburbans of this era had anything else there from the factory.

This thread shows an example from 64-66 years.

You’ve confirmed what I and my brother both remember, bare painted steel floor at that location. Covering came along in later models. Thank you.

The 62 currently linked in the For Sale section from BAT has floor mats in it. Maybe they were added later or would 62 be the first year offered?
