As mentioned before, the passenger seat didnt want to move rearward so I found a used replacement that is "completely functional" on Ebay. FedEx tracking shows it will arrive today so I figured i'd do some prep work last night.
Pulled the Passenger seat to clear the area, then decided it needed some cleaning under there. Decided to pull the driver's seat also. Only had some "Oxi-Clean" spray handy and it did a decent start but ran to Advanced and got some "Tuff Stuff" foaming cleaner to try today. Also got some Griott's 3 in 1 leather cleaner/conditioner cream. Yesterday's work: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Needed to move some stuff around to have a decent amount of space. In hindsight I should have placed Mustang over in the lift bay and moved the Z into the center of our two car bay. May do that once I get drivers seat re-installed today after work before I tackle passenger seat. ![]() |

Good progress. Somebody posted up using brake cleaner to clean the carpets. Might be worthwhile to try.

Busy couple of days!
Drove the Z over 300 miles on Saturday. Drove down to Virginia to meet up with a Wazoo member who had a few parts he offered me after a phone conversation. Take off Control arms front and rear Take off Grey Seat Covers and Cushions Spare Drivers Seat Bottom Take off Bilstein FX3 shocks Wheel to Hood Weatherstrip Had a great chat and learned a bunch of neat stuff about the C4 design! Met up with a buddy for lunch and had a spirited drive around some back roads. Bluey gave the newer German a run for its money ![]() ![]() Looks like I need to take the seats back out to install the new to me seat cushions. I wanted the control arms as I figured i'd rebuild this spare set and swap everything over on my car this winter but this set is pristine! I may upgrade the bushings in them but considering the arms in my car are in desperate need of a refresh, even just installing these arms would be a worthwhile upgrade. Yesterday I met up with a couple of the local Wazoo guys over at Jim's house as he offered to help me with a stubborn fuel filter. The job was not possible on my two post lift as my lift arm was directly below the fuel filter location. Lessons were learned! The filter may have been original to the car (seller told me to change out the fuel filter when I bought the car). I didnt try blowing through it like I normally do but there was a lot of debris coming out of the unit. We had an overall look at my car and it looks like the "to-do" list keeps growing ![]() Really looking forward to future wrenching sessions! ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Dropped Bluey off at Yanks Auto Detailing today for some love. Paint doesnt deserve a full Ceramic Coating yet but some of Brent's magic love will have her looking great by the weekend!
