Too bad legendary stuff is of poor fit and quality. If PUI made them would be better..

Now the thread is back on track. I always had the impression that Legendary did good work. I've never dealt with them so don't have any experience. Did have a minor stitching problem with a PUI skin a few years ago but my upholstery guy had things looking good in no time.

Mark,

I have installed at least 1/2 dozen of the Legendary door panels all on 1969-70 Chevelles. I have never had a problem with either fit or quality.

Was your bad experience you had on your 1968 L36 M20 Biscayne factory black car/blue interior?

Dan

I've dealt with only chevelles but will tell you for sure that Legendary is far superior to PUI.

pui 70 Chevelle buckets are FLAT as a board. NOT even close to being right. and the dieletrics pop all over the place.

I got 3 sets from them before I got 1 set that was a little better then half A$$.

Legendary is the Cadillac of interiors. there is NO comparison!

Mark,

I am no spokesperson for Legendary Auto Interiors. But I can honestly tell you that when LAI introduced there newest door panels at Chevel-Abration 4 years ago for 1970-72 Chevelles we were all blown away. As you said....its been roughly 7 years ago. Things have changed for the better. If you were to personally install one of these LAI door panels on, I bet you would be very impressed by there very high quality and fit.

I can also email you pics of several intalls. Feel free to email me at..... [email protected]

Dan

Ok....here is the latest news. We need 25 orders in order to have Legendary Auto Interiors produce the "300 Deluxe" door panels. The door panels would come in 3 colors...Black, Blue and Green. The price will be $331 for the fronts and $213 for the rears. They need "YOUR Original" top rails for only the rear door panels. They make the front rails in shop for the front panels. However, If you wish to use your own original top rails for the front door panels, this can be arranged.
Because I expressed concern with there very own made front top rails, LAI has offered to ship me the very first proto-type set of door panels to try and test.....and give my results back to everyone. I thought this was very cool of them to do.

Now for the "300 Deluxe" seat covers.....once LAI`s has an original set of seats to use as a mold. They will be able to make the seat covers in only Black, Blue and Green Cloth. No Black Vinyl at the present time. A set of "300 Deluxe" seat covers price is $1013. NOS material is subject for availability.

Let`s spread the world.

Dan.

Great news Dan. That's a reasonable price on these panels.
I will be making an order for 2 sets of door panels.
