There were a ton ordered, but I'm reasonably sure that most went through Duval Ford in Jax.

You got it, Mike! I had read that many were ordered from Don Reid and hadn't heard about Duval, interesting, thanks!

Here are some pics from my visit to the body shop today. I was thrilled to see that the car was in the paint booth and ready to be "squirted" (not my term, this is what the owner said lol!). All of the trim will be removed and painted separately (shown with it still on here). I was told it should be ready by the end of next week, originally they said it wouldnt be ready until the fall so I am very happy. Now I just hope the seats and wheels are near completion. I spent the weekend in the garage working on the interior trim, cleaning and refinishing it. I put the door panels together with new lock grommets, new window/lock switches and bezels. I also configured the light bar and figured out "which wire did what". She is getting there quickly, maybe I will get a cruise in before the end of the season afterall! Thanks for looking, I will try to post more after my next visit to the body shop on Wednesday.
