    Resto.

    The start of a restoration always feels a bit overwhelming, but just making forward progress of any kind keeps the fire burning. These wagons are worth every hour it takes. Welcome :2_thumbs_up_-_anima

    Mold Killer


    Hi VC, to get rid of mold, somebody told me,to use pure alcohol(~90 or more%, no Jack Daniels etc:naughty:); stuff you should be able to get at a drug store. Here in Germany, it´s fairly cheap and should not be a problem for vinyl.
    Just take a rag, soak with alcohol and go over it a few times.

    Hope this helps.

    Nice wagon, by the way:):Welcome:

    Yes, great intro and nice wagons. Restoring the old family wagon will be a lot of work but work well spent. :idea: As for mold any widow cleaner usealy works then get some upostery cleaner and see how it goes .:cheers:

    I have heard that regular white vinegar works well. Give it a shot. :thumbs2:

    1970, I am so jealous of you in that A) Your family owned a Vista Cruiser. I hounded my Dad to get one but no, he'd always get a Ford and B) That you own one now, let alone the very same one you had as a kid.
    Welcome to the forum and best of luck on your resto. Can't wait to see before and after pics.
