Rory,

Too bad we already signed the paperwork - 1/2 off would have been great. But at that price, I do have 93 friends that are all going to want one. Cary is going to be so glad for all the extra business you got for him!

More Pictures

Postby emmen » Mon Nov 16, 2009 1:11 am

It's been a while since I posted build pictures, so this may be a bit of an overload. However, I think it is very neat to see their entire build process.

You can see a lot of work went into the custom stereo system...

Assembling the hatch
Image

Speakers are mounted on hatch
Image

Hatch is trial-fit to check speaker operation
Image

The speakers are added inside
Image

iPod wall dock is mounted
Image

False floor in the left cabinet. Under it, we mounted the amp and other components.
Image

[Testing the amp. We had a few problems. We are going to have to get an attenuator to adjust the TV output to make it work with the amplifier
Image

The front is paneled
Image

Side skins are added
Image

Tail lights are wired
Image

Inside showing the paneled front. The furnace ducts are added (silver).
Image

The front is skinned in aluminum.
Image

Sides are skinned and fenders hung.
Image

Cabinets are installed in the kitchen.
Image

Stove is added.
Image

Right cabinet with speaker control.
Image

Back-up camera above the license light.
Image

Roof fan installed.
Image

Front windows installed and propane tank mounted
Image

Installing the sink. counter lids added
Image

Bottom front is panneled.
Image

I'm guessing there's only about another week before it is finished :)
