  • Can This Abandoned Evo Be Cleaned? Car Detailing Restoration of A Mitsubishi Evolution X
    Today I am detailing a Mitsubishi Evo X MR that has been sitting for several years covered in a garage just waiting to be brought back out on the road and restored back to its glory. I will be pulling out the seats, cleaning every inch of the interior, extracting the carpets, restoring trim all around the exterior including the wrapped roof and trunk, detailing the engine bay, and lastly giving the exterior a thorough car wash and applying a ceramic sealant from Cerakote.
    The Evolution X is the latest generation of Evo Mitsubishi produced and despite the criticism it receives, it still is a fantastic car to drive. Out of all the Evos the X is unique with its dual clutch manual transmission option. With this being the MR version it is extra special but it also was upgraded with coilovers, an AMS performance intake, downpipe, tune and exhaust. #stauffergarage #detailing #restoration #evox #mitsubishi #evo #satisfyingvideo #satisfying

    Very well said sir! I know it is not from the era you are talking about, but my dad had a 1977 Dodge Ram with a slant 6 engine in it. No computers, no carpet, bench seat, standard AM / FM radio, air conditioning / heater had the slides for temp control, roll up windows. Nothing fancy but it was easy to work on and it was especially fun to work on it with him. My dad and I miss those days and I miss that truck. Nice job detailing as always.

Also, when you remove seats to clean the interior, you disconnet the battery terminals first before removing the seats right?

      I had a GR sti back in the day and loved it but if you haven’t tried an evo preferably a IV MR I would say give it a shot first

      @@StaufferGarage I am sure an EVO would be great fun. I just have had a lot of Subies. The Devil I know so to speak...

    Love the video my daily driver for till it gets cold & nasty is a 08 honda civic si mugen. No turbo fun 6 speed all stock beside dipped wheels & I put a k&n air filter in stock air intake area. Other months is my 2019 ford f450 black & tan 2 tone king ranch crew cab 4x4 dually 6.7L powerstroke there was a bunch of goodies on it before I found this gem. Almost a yr now upgraded to Black evo American forces wheels & michelin 19.5's. From the stock continental & alcoa's like night & day difference in looks & performance of tires. I'm about 30 minutes north of cincy I would love to have u details my vechicles between my 2 & my wife's 2 plus are honda rubicon 4 wheeler. Happy turkey day thanks
