Default Custom F-Body Trunk Sub Box w/12's and amp. Still use your t-tops and have Subs!

My dad and I custom built this box for the trunk deck on my camaro so I could have subs and still put the t-tops in the trunk. It's built out of 3" MDF. Very good quality build!

and it's actually for sale.

Comes with
2 memphis power reference 12 inch subwoofers (retailed $500 last year for speakers alone)
Power Acoustics Gothic Series 1800 Watt Amp already wired to the subs. It runs them perfectly and the RMS was matched well

Does not come with the smaller black amp also on the box in the pic. That runs my car speakers so I will be keeping that.

$550obo for this awesome custom setup! Don't be without subs or use of storing your t-tops anymore!

Also consider trades for f-body performance parts, examples:
LS6 243 Heads or 799s
2" Sunoco hood(without line) for 98-02 camaro
Nice f-body wheels with a good lip.
maybe other 98-02 camaro parts. Make me an offer!

I call bullshit on the $500 pr series Memphis subs. I know for a fact they are less than $100 a piece. For a setup like this. The most you would get is $200

thats not so much "custom" as it is, a rectangle box with those dimensions... and I believe you meant 3/4'' not 3'' otherwise those are some grossly shallow mount subs and I have a waffle cone and a fridge magnet that will hit harder...

No not a piece. They were $250 a piece last year retail haha $500 total. Obviously they are not that now because new car audio is developed every 3 seconds, but that's what they retailed last year. Also I am not just selling subs...it's the whole package here.

It's been a year since we built it and everything but I remember we did the calculation on it and it was in the proper range. I don't remember numbers though.

This is in the classifieds but I just figured I would show it off here and if anyone wanted it I would let them know it's for sale and all.

I am not bothered by the wires...I don't open the trunk much. I'm not a guy that shows the subs off to people.
