When I bought my 83 last year about this time it had sat out for a month in heavy rains and had water sloshing around in the rear wheel wells and what turned out to be on the rear seat as well. I had to remove all the carpet and the rear seat cushions down to the metal and I laid them out in front of my wood burner one at a time for several days to evaporate all the water. I didn't use any sprays or chemicals on the seats, but they were physically heavy with water from the rain, I put the carpet and seats back in about a month later and drove it for 6 months and never smelled that musty moldy smell again even when hot in the summer.
