Yeah I know, I always thought 162 was the only two door model. Im no expert though.

I know they made a 142 don't remember a 162, but look at the tag-Zolland, a graphic designer, did some neat amazon wagon, woody stuff too!

I thought about using mine for target practice

A couple small dirt stains that are left should come out with some Folex.
It looks much flatter now that I have the seat and trim in place.

Missed opportunity. While you had it apart you could of:
1. Pulled the carpet.
2. Took it to a car wash.
3. Hung it on the wall.
4. Soak with degreaser.
5. Power rinse with just water.
6. Put it in a tub.
7. Take home and hang to drip dry.

I have done this with floor mats that where so dirty and greasy they looked like they where beyond the point of no return. A good precentage come out looking like new.

I'll have to do that for the other side, I pressure washed this one on the driveway. I was thinking the whole time I should have brought it to the car wash so I could hang it.

Get some clips like they have on the wall of a wash bay. Screw them to a wall at home. Plastic wood working clamps at Walmart can do. You want the carpet turned 90° So that water will runs to the edge and drips off. I hang them in a shed on the rafters with clips wired to the rafters. The elevated heat helps them to dry faster.

I'll have to do that. Might attach a took to a tree I have just beyond my garage so the pressure washer will reach just fine.

Could nail a 2X4 to the outside of the garage. Then attach the clips to the 2X4. The wall will help keep the carpet from flopping around as you work the pressure washer.
