All work and no play makes Philly a dull boy.

A scratch in the rubber coating was all it took.

First a safety meeting with my helper.

what did you use or the process to clean your carpets?

 

[philly0420]

I own a Bissel commercial carpet cleaner with a badass attachment for stairs. I cleaned it twice with that. A rug doctor from your local rental place will give them same results. My carpet wasn't too badly soiled however.

Lets see it finished!!!

 

[philly0420]

I gotta wet sand and clear the parts. Then I have to do the door cards. I got a late start in the year. I usually put my Mark in winter storage around mid October.

how did you get all that rubber coating off

 

[philly0420]

how did you get all that rubber coating off

I soaked the parts in the hottest water I could stand to put my hands in, then used a plastic scrapper for removing old caulk. The air bag was done with easy-off and the scrapper.

 

[danny_holtermann]

hmmmm... starting to boil water

 

[philly0420]

Not that hot might warp parts.

KK asked to see it done.

That paint on the trim is sweeeeet. Is that the color scheme you're going with? You should accent the seats with the same color as well. I got the skins off now, I have to box them up now. You wanted the astrays too?

 

[philly0420]

Yea the rear ashtrays and the trim around them and the little screws that hold the seat trim on the seat. I also need the tiny screw next to the torx bolt that holds the seat belt to the floor. The radio trim and the EATC or HVAC control trim. And yes the the medium cranberry on the seats would look sweet. I have not looked into having the leather done yet. I would like to have some piping done on the seats in the cranberry or the lincoln logo.
I toyed with the idea of seeing if I could get the medium cranberry seat belts, but I doubt FORD has them.

The color matches the outside pretty good. I repainted the bumper with the same rattle can from dupilcolor. The pics of the inside were taken at night and the flash does make the paint look lighter than it is.

 

[slowmkviii]

looks nice but i think you got a little carried away on the interior
