Love it!

Excellent work as usual Jay.
That looks great! Bet it's fun having that level of equipment in such beast of American muscle.
Not sure about that. . . but, if you`ve ever seen a Chris-Craft with teak from bowsprit to transom, you know aluminum or fiberglass are just another option!

So, I guess I can update this one. He brought the car in around May of '19 to have me trim the trunk. He REALLY wanted to upgrade to 12's.
My plan had been to build a new box for the L7 Q series 12's, and then lay the amp rack I had previously built on the floor. But it didn't fit, so I had to redo everything.
First, we ended up not doing the air ride like we had discussed last year. He got more appropriately sized wheels and tires so they didn't rub anymore. Sorry the pic got corrupted.

New box for 12's with internal bracing.

Each side panel has inserts that are held in place with magnets, and allow access to the batteries on the driver's side, and a storage compartment on the passenger side.

the two oval shaped pieces on the sides hide the bolts that attach it to the box, and are held on with magnets.

Thanks for looking.
From an aesthetic point of view, I would have liked to stick with the 10's, but he really wanted the 12's. I did brushed aluminum strips on the sides to tie in with the Arc Audio 4200SE and 2300SE in the floor. I used acrylic on the front trim panel because a) we could light it up later if he wanted, and b) I didn't have 3/8" thick aluminum plate. lol
Beautiful ! ! ! Jay

I hope I saw that car during the cruise. I was just across the street from you with two Formula SAE cars. I didn't walk over to visit because I was still on crutches. Thankfully I'm done with those bastards for now.
