Just incase you missed it, Soap and a Volkswagen Part 1 – Bringing Her Home

So, now that we have her home, we needed to clean her out and completely disassemble the interior.

Thankfully, these snazzy seat covers and layers of trash preserved the original interior very nicely, but we will get to that later. Just getting all of the trash out made a huge difference. Potential is gleaming from this beauty! Super cool, we found the original jack!Pealing back the layers of time.

Now to pull out all of the interior.While taking apart seats, I received my first restoration injury!

Bam! Empty!
Okay…now she’s empty…Next we took the topper off. While Rory was doing that, I was disassembling the seats and mother of pearl, look what I found, pristine, original vinyl! Seriously, these seats are nicer than any of the seats in anything we drive…
Along with the original jack and gorgeous vinyl seats, we found some awesome original stamping. Next, it was time to clean her, but that is going to have a post of it’s own because you will not believe how rust free and clean she is.
