    Excellent job so far......   :2thumbs:

    Frames were sprayed today.
    Forget rattle cans. That would've taken forever.

    Installed driveshaft.
    Seat backs came in.

    Legendary Interiors said that I should get the interior kit beginning of February.

    I bought the seat foams Legendary.

    As I mentioned earlier, It appears that PUI is the only source out there that sells to other companies.

    Since I ordered everything at once from legendary; it was the best choice for overall pricing and less shipping total.
