back in 98 when I got my first 86 turbo Z which had been in a field for 2 years before I got it, it was infested. I stripped the interior and it still smelled, even with the interior out. the mice had gotten behind the dash and into the air vents. I pulled the instrument cluster out last summer to check another 86 turbo Z's to see if it worked and found more nests in there, so be ready to take everything apart. -----Original Message----- From: Greg Z <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: shelby-dodge@imagicomm.com Sent: Wed, 5 Apr 2006 06:58:07 -0700 (PDT) Subject: Re: SD> Mouse smells in stored car.
I pulled a Shelby Charger from a field that had mice in it. I steam cleaned, simple green'd, you name it, but there was still that "smell" especially on hot days. yuck. So one afternoon I went nuts and dismantled the interior and found a few little nests behind the plastic trim which were the root cause. Once those were gone it was fine, but the moral of the story is, be prepared for a THOROUGH cleaning!! The fun part about those mice was the nest with a dead one getting shot out the tailpipe after firing the car up after being dormant for two years...
