I have a 1992 Allante and there is an oder in the trunk area and can't get ride of it. Tried all oder sprays and shampooed carpet with no luck. What can I do short of removing all the trunk carpeting.

is it a mold & mildew odor or like something dead. Identifying the type odor will make it easier to solve the issue.

Buy yourself a pound of cheap coffee beans. Grind them on a very coarse grind. Scatter them through the trunk, and scrub them in with a stiff brush. Give it three or four days, then vacuum. Your trunk will smell like coffee for a week or so, but that's more tolerable, and the smell goes away.
