Every time I see your thread title I think of the song Here We Go Again by Whitesnake and when I think of that song I think of Will Ferrell in Old School when he is working on his car. lol

This is the part lol


Is that you John?

I like it blue but when I sell it the new owner might decide to go a different way with the grill, I thought about painting the inside but decided against it.

Yeah I cleaned it but not steam clean. It still needs a little detail work. It was in good shape except missing a jump seat.

I use tuff stuff and simple green. I spray the bad spots with simple green then tuff stuff and scrub it with a brush. Repeat if needed and vacumn it up.

I found to use a wire brush for welding to scrub and fluff the carpet... Worked wonders with my wides Dakota. Her carpet was black, now it's cleaner than when we got it.

Spray it with choice of chemical
Scrub 8 ways in a star shaped pattern
Clean with carpet cleaner
