Trashed F150 brought back to life

Okay, so a buddy of mine who has a small mowing business bought this truck from somewhere and brought it over to me and asked me if I could "help it out" and to get rid of the cigarette smell from the inside. He has another truck just like it and that's probably why he decided to buy this truck to pull their mowers around with. The interior was really bad and the pictures which I only have my phone dont do this justice. I was able to pretty much clean everything spotless on the inside accept for the headliner which I vacumed, and cleaned carefully with a cotten towel and lightly misting it with some cleaning solution. I learned the hardway a coule of years ago what happens when you get a headliner too wet! Anyways, here are the befores....

Some shots of during...

Now the afters...

Great work, Tom! The seat fabric in those Fords can be a pain to deal with when it's full of filth.

Thanks everyone! Paul and I had just attending a spotting class in Indy calle Advantage Marketing which specializes in Professional carpet and upolstry cleaning, their chemicals work much better that the previous APC's I was using. I also used a fogger on the inside with a product from OdorX called Thermo 55, Tobac-attack, it worked great knocking out the smell!
