thanks for looking....and stay tuned.

Awesome... Can't wait for pics of this build

on my trip to Spokane picked up some parts.

Got a 2000 Jimmy front end conversion going on.
Picked up parts to drop the car, so i just need shocks.

next will be some tint very soon.

got some updates but i'll just let the pics show, stay tuned.

finally get around to getting SOMETHIN done.

front end conversion is done with 6k HIDs

How are you planning on fitting 6 15's, in a 4th or something

]

getting some work done

Nice... 3 runs?

yep, gave my other run to Mr. Piety.
3 will be enough for now til i add another alt.

Mike had to remove both passenger front/rear seats to get the runs through so i rather not do that again lol.

That box design looks really interesting! Does it model like 6th order or just a flat wall with different loading on the subs near the port? I actually came up with a similar idea yesterday for my rebuild when I was doodling and then just saw this. You can bet i'll be looking forward to hearing how this does

not really sure lol. It doesn't show cancellation so it should be like a normal box.


why are you rebuilding, your setup is sick!

Few more things being done soon, stay tuned for results

haha fair enough, i love that idea for fitting all that cone area tho for sure.

I wont do a full rebuild until this season ends. I mostly want to do it because I think I have learned so much since I first planned this build out, it can be a lot better the second time around.

Not expecting much from it, I just want a 55 and be good.

Time for a 4 15s c pillar wall!!

should be ready for a test fit, little more sanding, and ready for paint soon

looks good . Ipad going in there? and is that on the passenger side?

Not an ipad.
Yep the passenger side, when I give demos I will probably sit there, I never have voltage issues really so I don't rev the engine. And it will house for movies and my external hard drive for all my music while the deck will hold my smaller amount of music and such for daily

Pretty cool idea on the tablet. I've got a Kindle Fire and should be getting an iPad 2 here shortly. I was kind of wondering where to mount either one. Not a lot of real estate on the dash of a 98, so, I'd have to get creative. Maybe an iPad flip down out of the roof?

What car?

My bad, I've got a 98 S10 Blazer. I think I'm going to try my hand at making a center console, since there is quite a bit of unused space under the dash, between the dash and seat. Maybe mount it there. My head unit has front and rear USB, so I could just hook it to the rear and be set.

You can fit a tablet where the deck id

I'll have to take a look and see what I can come up with.

take a look at this
