Who doesn’t love coming home and finding new car parts waiting at the door???!!! OK probably my wife…but who else?
New Carpet (Black) New E-Hand Brake console.
The plan for the interior -at this moment is to replace all the ugly carpet (what’s left of it) with Black.
There is no carpet in the front. You see remnants of the underlayment and some surface rust in the front.
And this “no idea what color that is’ carpet in the back.
At this point the seat belts and the seats will be black (or maybe red — Thoughts?)
I don’t know what to do with the rest of the car that has this off-white (without the details from an invoice or window sticker, I have no idea what the carpet color options were in 1976) – I don’t think this is going to come clean enough to suit me. I had luck painting some parts of my 1970 Mustang’s interior, I might consider that again.
I have already pulled off one of the kick panels, and I’ve scrubbed it pretty well. It did not clean up well. See —>
Maybe more elbow grease on the hard plastic but I don’t know about the fake leather.

BTW check out ‘Just Mopar Joe’ on YouTube. He used POR PATCH for minor floorboard repairs and it looks like a solid fix.
Simple Green solution 30% and cotton terry cloths, toothbrushes, and Mr Clean Erasers. Really bad stains try Rubbing Alcohol with the Mr Clean eraser. You can always buy spray vinyl dye and re-dye the panels once clean for a new look.
