MG MGA - Carpet Size

I am about to make my own carpets using Witon Wool and the templates from Barney's website. My problem is that I am not sure how much carpet to order. The carpet is sold by the yard and is 50" wide. Can someone tell me how many yards of carpet it will take to do my Mga Coupe ...interior (and behind the back seats) and ...the trunk area. Thanks

Gordon,
I suspect that if you called Cecilia at Scarborough Faire she could tell you how much material is needed. SF makes their own carpet sets.
Cheers,

After the issue of my headliner and SF lenghty delays ,I don't think Cecilia would even give me the time of day.

Oh, there is that! I forgot :)
Well, what about Moss then? They have an upholstery shop and SOMETIMES can be helpful....
I suppose I could give Cecilia a call for you, if you wouldn't mind.

Cheers,

If no one else chimes in I will take a tape measure and get some dimensions. The reasons I am doing this Is Heritage Trim wants over $600.00 Can = TX =Shp for the main carpet area (in Wilton Wool) not installed. I agree their products are top of the line but Wilton Wool /by the yrd is $65.00 and if I need 3 yds for the full interior....then with the full size carpet templates from Barneys site and a couple of bucks for so sewing ....I can produce some good carpets.
