Thanks for sharing your channel. It’s interesting watching you restore the Lexus 400.

Thanks Jacob for the kind words 👍

When I first got my 650 dollar 90' LS400, the right passenger side carpet (no floor mat) had what presumably looked like dried up blood caked on to the carpet mad thick it made a hard coating you could knock on.

[@collectingmodernclassiccar9771]

Urgggghhhhh. Did you ever discover what it was?!? I suppose at 650 dollars you couldn’t complain to much - bargain?

@@collectingmodernclassiccar9771 yeah it was a great car until someone totaled it in a nissan few months ago, bought a 1991 Toyota Celsior to replace it.

Weird that should be a first aid kit under the seat mine still contains all the original bits

[@collectingmodernclassiccar9771]

Wonder how good 30 year old plasters are 🤣 Would have been nice to have the original kit though.

I’d try doing a test spot with some leather conditioner and the mini polisher, I think it might help rehydrate the leather nicely then any cracking that’s very apparent you can try to redye it

[@collectingmodernclassiccar9771]

Just feeding the leather with a sponge made a big difference almost immediately. After applying a few ‘courses’ by morning the leather was much, much improved. The mini polisher is an interesting idea though… 👍

I’ve got the same car!
