I've used a quick squirt of 50/50 bleach and water prior to washing it too...

What color is the XR7? Using Back-to-Black may not be a good idea, as the molding on the '88 XR7 is painted body color; not black plastic.
My red '88 XR7 had mold and growth in the side trim when I bought it. I got some Meguiar's Cleaner/Wax and about a million terry cloth towels. Yeah, it took a few hours.
That's how I got rid of it...
