Looks awesome for sure. What all do you need to do to get the body back on? Short or long list?

Where theres a problem theres always a solution if you spend enough time looking.

So i decided to go a bit over the top with the hifi / stereo set up in this thing.
Ive got a bunch of speakers ive had for ages and fitted them all with a JVC bluetooth head unit a week ago.
I also fitted the drive in speakers and some mb quart componant speakers.
The missing link was some base.
I scored a 10 inch kicker hi def subwoofer for 25 bucks and paired to the 600 watt amp and 2i inch tv should make fore some awsum home theater. .. not to mention quality sound system.
I installed it in the central door that covers the electrical system inside.
Test drive tomorrow.

A good quality sound system just can't be beat. I'm trying to decide what I want in that regard. Still thinking about a system similar to yours, or just having a really cool vintage radio. Not a lot of middle ground for me I guess... Anyway, looks great man, your work always does! :thumbsup:
