Rear Seat Restoration

Grampy was here again, and the project this weekend was to restore the rear seats. We have been looking at various ways to get the interior restored, and found that the most common suggestion has been to clean the mold and dirt with a spray of white vinegar, and gentle scrubbing. Then once the seats are mostly clean, to go over them with mineral oil which will bring out the sheen of the vinyl and also help soften them up a bit. We gave it a try.....

The first test went well. We cleaned up the section on the right, and it was now in much better shape.

Here we are with half the backrest done.

Here is the set bottom completed.

All cleaned up and installed back in the car.
