1967 Mercedes 250S

This is a build I completed in October of 2017 and competed with at MECA/IASCA Finals in Louisville that year. I created this build thread on DIYMA so I'll just cut and paste it here over the course of a week or two.

The equipment list for this car is:

Highly modified Panny Bottlehead (Panasonic CQ-TX5500W)
Helix DSP
A pair of Zapco Z-150.4LX amps for the 3-way front stage and a 1k amp for the sub
Hybrid Audio Technologies L1R2 tweets, L3SE mids, Clarus C6 midbass and a single Clarus C15 sub

The original build thread started on June 5th 2017. I'm just going to cut and paste.

"Yesterday I started on the console that will house the Panny double DIN HU. This will eventually flow thru into a center console between the two front seats. This HU console is similar to one I just built for the other '67 Benz that is in my shop. That one belongs to a good buddy of mine....same year, model, exterior body color but with black interior instead of blue like mine. I will be changing mine to black as well. Not a fan of the blue at all."

Next I needed to play around on the router table in order to make it hollow on the inside after the MDF panels get stacked.

I then used this piece as a guide to make the next one a little thicker. Once that one was finished I then duplicated that part until I had the correct width for the HU.
