ordered the molded carpet kit from LMC, can't complain about the fitment at all just took a little patients, from what I read the wrinkles should work themselves out in a couple days,

Got my seat installed yesterday, Im really digging how everything is coming out. All thats really left is buttoning up the wiring harness, running the fuel line, and hooking the brakes up and it should be ready to cruse, I just can't wait to drive it!

There hasn't been a whole lot of action lately, Been working on a couple house projects. but this afternoon started working on a little finalization of the body so I tossed a few pictures in of it, really like how the "under construction/patina" look is coming out. I have also came across a few bumps in the wiring harness I had an thinking my best option is just buying a brand new wiring harness so that should be close to the final steps and other than possibly a few tweaks should be driving it, can't wait for that!
