        Dash and carpet out, floor looks ok from the inside.  Lots of sticky residue under the carpet, looks to be spilt soda...

                        Or find some dry ice, pour it on, whack it with a hammer and boom no more floor tar.

                          I got the interior out,

                          Dashboard, this should not be so difficult...

                          019zpsf1868041.jpg

                          Seats and carpet.

                          027zpsca392e73.jpg

                          Looked great at that point, then I started removing the tar layer.

                          And the mountain of tar junk, every little bit of weight out helps.

                          033zpsb19823ec.jpg

                          Next tasks, tar out of the trunk, then get the car out of the garage for sandblasting.

                                We made some dollies with 6" casters to get the car out of the way so we could work on the vert.

                                It rolled really nice like that, here is it's resting place until the convertible is done.
