[Shop-talk] Musty seats

I was recently given a set of Fiat 124 Spider seats that I am thinking about
recovering for use in a Alpine hot rod I am building.  The upholstery is
completely shot, but they are complete and appear to be salvageable.  From
what I can see, the foam is damaged but repairable and usable.  Except they
stink!
  I think it is just mildew that has permeated the foam.  I don't mind
spending the $300 or so to recover them, but the costs would escalate
past what they are worth to me if I started screwing around with new
foam.  Is there a reliable way to get the stink out of seats that have
seen better days?

Thanks.
