97 Talon ESi, non-turbo, front wheel drive. A bit of a find makes a heck of a project.

Step one for me: removing the interior.
A previous owner didn't take great care of the car. There are two major problems with the interior. First off, they addressed a leak with the clutch master cylinder (I believe) but simply refilling the fluid. So the carpet was pretty destroyed. They also installed a push button starter because of a botched started installation. So I removed the seats (I think they're salvagable), the center console (probably not worth keeping), rear seats, the carpet, and the under driver dash trim where they installed the push button start.
Next step is to clean the fluid, dirt, and trash from the cabin while giving it a good scrub while I track down a decent carpet and other interior pieces.
