Hi TWA! More than likely bits of the carpet have been kept under seal in an airtight container and then the answer will be a resounding YES! The vehicle itself in all probability has had the entire carpet removed (especially if the FBI gang got involved, they "dig" down to metal and if the carpet were damp or wet upon receipt/or after testing it would be retained within paper bags after & during the drying process), the odor will be present but in a lesser amount. SO, short answer...yes but NOT a "tornado of odor" more like the "spritz from the Glade thingie" BUT it will be aromatic and memorable to those who have experienced it in the past.:twocents:
It would be good to know what exactly has been removed from the car ... even if the trunk were totally stripped down to the metal, the stench was in the car itself ... which means upholstery, headliner, any padding on the doors, carpet ... IMO if the car has been closed up all this time, the odor will still be very strong and pungent ... I remember George saying how much it stunk IN the car not just the trunk ... that and the fact that the back seat folds down in that model means to me that the smell in the car could have been as strong as in the trunk if it had been closed up when KC abandoned it ...
