Cleaning a Dead Guy's ABANDONED Mustang!

@falyssamayhew7285 I never understood the tan interior in those either. A friend of mine had the exact mustang being detailed on this video. He bought it used and there was a pack of 50 condoms under the driver seat that the detailer missed. My friends mom laughed very hard at him and said, sure they were already in there! I was with him because I drove him to pick up the car. Those 5.0s were just great cars back then.

[@joelbuchanan471]

"The mustang that can only go in reverse" was the story here. This was a great cleanup of this classic. Ok, about the "tuck tape", I reference the movie from 2001 "Zoolander" where Mugatu says "I feel like I'm taking crazy pills". We have a tape here called Duct tape, which is kind of what you show, but has less adhesion and should not be used in construction. I laughed and laughed for some reason. Excellent Engine bay cleanup. Using the shop vac for the glass and all those leaves was genius. No one wants that in their central vac tank. I loved how the red interior cleaned up so well. You made that carpet vibrant again. the pour from the Mytee machine sure showed the brown water. Come on with the door "pockets", love those. Another amazing job cleaning up this classic. Go BIG RED! Hope the new owner gets the transmission and other things fixed. Have a great weekend Mitch!! 💜 #Mike4Mayor, #MikeEatsBread.

[@cynthiahopkins7090]

Good morning Joel, oh man! The tape duct looks red to match that the 93 Mustang has all colors. I never thought about the Shop vac but it's good and worthy. The high quality of shop vac, I just researched some information on the website. Deal prices are excellent. Mitch is well-intelligent in detail like A to Z. Have a wonderful weekend.

[@TheDetailGeek]

Hey Joel! Happy Friday! Oh man, Zoolander is a great movie! Definitely love working on these older vehicles as they always seem to clean up great! Should hopefully have a pretty cool one for you guys next week too. Have a great weekend Joel!

[@jb6712]

Actually, duct tape is very, very strong, and is meant primarily for use on such metals as furnace ducts---hence the name---and you're correct, it shouldn't be used in construction. It has been used in such applications as holding a small airplane together in an emergency, something like 35 years ago, when the pilot had to get home, had to fly the plane because of where he was, and the tape held everything together very well. However, there is also "Duck" tape, which is nowhere near as strong as duct tape, and is meant only for creative/craft-type use. It's what a lot of teens use to make those innovative prom costumes seen online every year, and is a fun product for those of us who enjoy crafting.

[@karentucker2161]

I want to know the story behind why it only goes in reverse 😂

[@kellywilkins8043]

Great job! You should build yourself a work platform that’s about 2 feet high so you don’t have to bend down to the floor to clean mats and trim etc… It will save your back as well!

[@mystisith3984]

Honest for honest, those mustangs are fugly as hell to me but if there's some residual value & someone wants to restore it, then it was a good idea to clean it. I'm part of those who like plush interiors with pop colors as well & those reds are always nice. Thanks for uploading. Have a great day folks.

Props to you for your willingness to clean these disaster vehicles. I recently used my Bissell spot cleaner to clean seats in a rental vehicle (my grandfather's work truck) and they were disgusting. Took me forever to do and I still am not happy with them. Getting a bottle of your carpet cleaner and drill brushes to finish the job. Great transformation on this Ford and I agree the red interiors are fire!

[@cameroncosby6633]

The Ford Mustang is one of my favorite most iconic sports cars in the world, Over the years, it has been a very popular muscle car when it came out since 1964 which marks the 60th anniversary of the iconic Ford Mustang. In 1967, The Mercury Cougar was launched as a classic luxury version of the Ford Mustang and it has been pretty popular as well, Unfortunately in 2002, Mercury Cougar was discontinued and the Mercury brand itself have started to lose its consumers leading to its discontinuation in 2011, that Ford made the decision to kill Mercury in order to concentrate on its Ford and Lincoln brands expanding Lincoln to seven products, However I really enjoy your video this looks amazing and have a great weekend.

[@Maryireanibrahim]

20:10 So my 1989 Ford F-150 XLT Lariat extended cab has the same color red interior. I was going to replace the carpet with black or grey and swap a few small pieces with the same color to give a little more of a personal touch but i may just get it throughly detailed after sitting 13 years outside with the window cracked open for likely the whole time since 2010 too bad im not close to you here in NC USA but heck i wish lol

[@loragunning5394]

Great cleanup of a classic car. I own and drive a '98 Camry w/175k miles on the original engine, runs like a champ, I am 3rd old-lady owner, I inherited the car from my mom when she passed in 2015. I've spent a LOT of money keeping my Camry road worthy, mostly because I simply cannot afford a newer vehicle and with my Camry I at least know what his issues are. The body of the car is really clean, other than a big dent in passenger side rear bumper where my mom backed into a large rock lining the edges of my uncle's driveway. Believe it or not, I am actually considering spending the money to get the bumper fixed, simply because when I take the car in for service everyone asks me "how did that happen"? Then I have to explain that it wasn't me who created the dent, it was my mom. Car's interior is nearly pristine, so yeah, he's in better than decent shape for being a geriatric car. Best thing about him, IMO, besides his incredible reliability, is that he LOVES to run FAST. I mostly just drive him around town, rarely get on the freeway, but when I do, wow! Hard to keep him at or reasonably within the speed limit. The faster he goes, the more he purrs!

Hey Mitch, for some of these old cars that have been left standing and sometimes with windows down, how do you clean the vents beyond just a brush and vacuuming of the surface area? What about potential dirt, dust, and/or mold in the air system. What about running the heater and placing the vacuum at the vents for a bit? And also, what about spraying something like Lysol in the intakes while running the engine to kill any mold spores?

[@TheMichelex20]

That looks to be a pre 1994 Mustang. Maybe a 1984. There was a new body style in 1994 to commemorate the anniversary of the 1964half. It didn’t look like this. I could be wrong, But great detailing as usual. I’d buy this one in a heartbeat.

[@shannonp1656]

I think you are right about the model year change. I have die casts of a 64/65 and 94.

[@BrendanW0214]

That’s a 1992-1993 given the fact it has the 1987-1993 front end, but has body colores trim moldings which narrows it down to a 1992 at the earliest. Considering it has the red colored instrument cluster and steering wheel, I am reasonably convinced it’s a 1993.
