Great thread, can you please explain a bit more about the materials you used for sound deadening, and the procedure of installation?
I've been toying with the Idea for a while since I dropped the go fast plan, and this thread is a great encouragement.
Please excuse my ignorance but I have zero experience in this.

Like said before, great thread. You know I like these kind of projects. You can learn alot and get tons of new ideas. So far, looks like your going about the project with every detail in mind, I like that. May take some time, but in the end it turns out a winner.
Question for ya, how do you remove the door panels? I need to replace the speakers.
Definetly will be watching your progress. Good luck and keep the pics comming.

If I didn't reply, send it again.
Check out post #52, I list and have pics of the materials used. I don't have time for a write up right now... I may be doing a write up for Camaro Performers Magazine so I'll let you know if that goes through...
The door panels come off easily. Remove the accessories bezel w/ two screws & unplug the buttons, the light removes by twisting 90° and the plastic lock slide pops off the steel rod. Then remove the 3 screws from the door panel. Lift up on the outside of the door first, then the inside and it will come unhooked. Here's a picture of the backside of the door panel and behind the bezel so you can get a visual:

I'm working on the interior right now... Seats, gauges, shifter, cleaning, etc. Then suspension; lower it 1 to 1.5", stripes, possibly re-paint the hood and front bumper to get rid of rock chips, rims, calipers, tires.... the list goes on, lol

I got everything back together and took her for a ride. It did quiet down quite a bit and you can actually tell the difference in the video I took. Problem is, I can't get my computer to recognize the DVD-RAM disc so I can't upload it Anyone know what the problem might be?

BTW, You have a hard road ahead to make this one as nice as your former black car. I look forward to seeing the progress.
