The bumper makes front of the car look a lot cleaner. The new pix are of my seat belt install. this has come a long way since this time last year, when I received the Ls3.

 

Why do my pix get turned SIDEWAYS when I post them ? Pix of the start of frenching head lights--- had to trim the outer ring off h/l bucket and mount from the inside of the fender--- weld H/L bezel to ft of fender, gives the f/t of the car a finished look.

 

Some pix of speaker kick panels covered with fabric to be fiber glassed.

 

Looking good!

 

 

The camaro seats have worked out nicely --- the convetable seats are different , so be ware. I have a lot of pix of the arm rests if you want me to post them i will.

 

Latest project was to fab drink holders for rear seats, got the speaker boxes covered ready to be fiberglassed. The weather in Montana has finely improved--- a little sun makes a lot of diff in your attitude. The next project is a electric trunk closer --- any pix or sugestions would be nice.

 

speaker enclosuer fiberglassed



electric trunk closer
Instaled a trunk closer from a 1999 cad, with a cover. Fiber glassed one of my speaker boxes next is plumbing the A/C and heater lines.

 

QA1 tube A arms


Vintage Air mini II


Head light rings tacked in place


Cad trunk latch





A/C dryer installed


All a/c and heater lines will be run in the fender well out of sight.



Trying to keep all lines clear of cold air intake
Started on running lines for the A/C and heater--- the a/c lines are EZ clip lines from Vintage Air these are smaller than the standard a/c lines and can be bent in a smaller radius fittings are smaller-- makes for a cleaner install.

Nice work on the speakers, your making nice progress.

 

Thanks I need all the encourgment I can get.

 

You've earned every bit of it!

 

welded some supports to the package tray to support top of rear seat

Some pix of the progress a/c lines heater valve, ect

 

It's coming along nicely! What kind of sound system are you putting in this thing? It seems most people older than their 20's don't put as much effort in a stereo as you have. I'm like you though, my '33 has 10 speakers, 4 mids, 4 tweeters and 2 subs, and it has 2 amps to run it all, but I just figure I never really grew up! LOL!

 

And This Is a Bad Thing ???

The progress looks great.

 

I have 4ea 6.5 JL Audio C3 650 and a Alpine PDX-V9 amp, haven't been able to decide on what Pioneer double din head to buy? Lots of choices out there. Still playing with the routing of a/c and heater hoses-- little by little it moves ahead.


New A-arms will give me the room i'll need for heater hoses


Clips to support heater hoses


Speakers fit in nice-- I was rather suprised how easy they are to fab.

 

One of the a/c lines passes close to the tweeter



will end up looking something like this
Started to fab a cover for the a/c and heater hoses that are in the wheel well and need to be protected.
