The Ford Barn

My parents are going to downsize and I will be bringing my father's '32 Tudor sedan to my house to get it back up and running for him. Problem is, for as long as I can remember, he's had either an open box or some type of holder for moth balls inside the car with the windows rolled up.

The car is a beautiful black car that is straight as an arrow. Problem is, the moth ball smell is completely overwhelming.

I'm assuming the car has a Lebaron Bonney interior since he restored it back in the early '70's and the interior is correct and looks great albeit it reeks.

Does anyone know of a way to get rid of that moth ball smell that has permeated the vehicle? My wife doesn't want the car here for fear it will stink up the house and all of my clothes.
