thehistorybehindthecivics: continued

First thing was first for TRHSC (TheRedHeadedStepChild).... Clean and gut the FREAK out of it.
This car was a little more than disgusting when we first brought it home. As said in the earlier post, we ended up picking the car up from an impound lot for a very decent deal. However, they towed the car from the previous owner with every possession still in the car from that owner.
We pulled out a shoe, homework, personal items and whole list of s**t we wont go into detail on.
Our main long term goal for the car was to be a track car, so we had no intention of keeping any interior pieces in the car besides the dashboard and front seats. So we started ripping everything out.....in the rain. It was actually alot of fun because we would rip out a part, look at each other, then throw it right out on the ground as if we didnt care at all. It probably took us about 40 minutes, and we had the whole interior completely out of the car.
Now the hard part, vacuuming and cleaning everything that was under the carpet (which was just as gross).
At this point, we were on top of the world. With only one seat (driver), we both couldnt wait to get it out on the street to show it off!
Some pictures of the process:



More to come...
