carraudio Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 So about a year ago I ran across this Suburban on Craigslist for $500. It wouldn't start and the owner had no idea how to fix it. It was perfect for what I needed we have 4 kids so we needed something that would seat 6+. Growing up we had a suburban just like this and I loved it. Plus you can't beat $500 for any car. Went out and looked at it, it tried to start but wouldn't. I knew there wasn't much wrong with it. Turned out the distributor was one tooth off. So this is what it looked like (I had already taken off the running boards) when I got it. It has a 327ci out of a 68 vette in it and had a Th350 too. Before After The headliner was trashed so I had to fix that and while I was in there I wired in 3 dropdowns. Once that was done it was on to getting some sound out of it, so I started with the doors. I didn't want to cut holes out I wanted it to look custom... For subs I hooked up my Boston GT2200 and my G5 subs in a prefabed box for now. Then I built a box to Boston's specs. Some other things I have done to it over the past year... Next post will be the fun one... Quote Chris Carr 2006 Grandprix The Stereo Clarion MAX675Vd, 160Gig iPod Coming soon...

carraudio Posted May 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 I have been looking for two more G5 subs. My amp will push 900w @ 1ohm stereo. So a few weeks ago my best friend gave me a set he had. I had a sheet of MDF sitting here at work. It wasn't enough to build a box for all four so j just made a copy of the other box and just stacked them... I picked up this kenwood for free and put it in too... Because this is my haul all the kids around car and we do take it on road trips I'm working on a smaller box so we have more room... I have been told I can't spend any more money on my cars until after our wedding in June. I plan on building a box for all four subs. The bad part about Albuquerque is they don't do anymore sound comps. Quote Chris Carr 2006 Grandprix The Stereo Clarion MAX675Vd, 160Gig iPod Coming soon...
