LCort101 Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Alright guys (and girls), As I mentioned in my first post, I have been around for a little while. My first CA install was in 1986 for my friend Shawn. I was 15 years old at the time so if you do a little math you will see I have installs that are older than most of the people in here reading them. Nonetheless, I have taken some time to take some pictures of my old pictures (yeah, I wrote it right, Pics of Pics). I didn't want to go through the trouble of scanning everything in order to post it. Another side note is that I absolutely hated taking pics of my work back then. It was a hassle getting out your old mechanical or disposable camera, and having to take your film in to be developed, so quite honestly, I hardly ever did it. SO!!! Here are the highlights of 25+ years of stuff I built. Some of it was great. Some of it makes me wonder if I should have worn a mask more often while spraying the contact cement. This isn't everything as I remember doing some jobs that I have no pictures of, but the funniest part is that I looked at some of these pictures and couldn't remember the jobs (Contact Cement again). Always wear your respirators! 1992-93: This was my Civic. It had 16 Orion 10" in it. It was a fun little car. This van belonged to the JL audio/ PPI rep at the time. 16 12W1 if memory serves correctly. 1994: Something for a customer: eight 15's in the extra cab area. Check out that supreme woofer quality lol! Post 1995: The years all blend together at this point. I built the back for this thing. Someone else built the beautiful box. This one was fun: I took a month building it. It was one of my pride pieces. I wish I had more pics of it now. Quote Funky Lu WYLA Designs What Ya Lookin At?

LCort101 Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 I had to split up the post. I guess I had too many pics in one post. Here's the rest. Another Fun One. I almost cut my middle finger off while making the "P" inn ALPINE. Those letters are 1/2" aluminum. Many late nights on this. That's all for now. I have one more thing under my sleeve that I will unleash once the Exploder is done. I am working out the details of it right now, but if this thing comes together jaws will drop. JGrimm knows the details, but he better not tell. I'll just say: Something evil this way comes... Thanks all. Enjoy the pics Quote Funky Lu WYLA Designs What Ya Lookin At?
