After doing the Buick this afternoon, I had anouther customer want me to do her interior of a Sunbird.



It was horrid, and I couldn`t do much to bring it back to life, other than extract the carpets and use some good dressing to bring back a little bit of gloss.



No need to show processes, lets get to the part thats actually worth it, the pictures.

It sure looks a LOT better than it did. How long did it take?

Looks much better than it did -- but for that old of a car, not much short of a recarpet and reupholster job would bring it back to life. Yeowch.

Thats nasty... For some reason, alot of the Sunbirds i see are like that. Just imagine crawling in that nasty filth trying to install an alarm....blech!

Looks like the interior of that Chevy Cadaver...I mean Cavalier I did a while back. I know just how you feel trying to work magic on something that nasty.



Definitely a big improvement!

My older sister keeps the inside of her car something similar. I did a makeover on her interior but had to swear not to post any pictures on the net. I would have been too embarrassed to anyways.:(

I think it`s because most end up owned by female teenagers who know NOTHING about taking care of their cars, and simply don`t care.
