Thanks, it's been through a lot and will really start to come together within the next 10 months or so. BTW, after the roof 'redoing' it's louder than ever...I could hairtrick with the crossfire 1k in there, way louder with the roof stiffened up...cant wait to see what happens with another M3a and the doors welded up ;)

I'm glad I did the roof how I did...it's so solid now and it has made it a lot louder to the ear (like, a lot louder). And I don't do 'normal'... :)

I am so happy to see this thing again. Always a personal favorite of mine!

Thanks, man! Just wait and see what else is coming, still so much to do...need to get out to the garage and get to work!

Looks solid as concrete to me.

Thanks alaskanzx5 I might just do that
I can recone a sub myself. About a year ago I took 2 12" power acoustic mofos and made one sub. I took the magnet and the motor off of one and j b welded it to the other motor and magnet. I had to wind my own voice coil so it would work. After I was done hooked up to 2 boss 5000w amps. And shattered my back and all my side windows

came to this thread to recommend soundqubed and ct sounds. OP goes with soundstream.

oh lawd.

It is, Ive gotten up on it and jumped on it as hard as I could a few times now...it's mega solid :)

If anyone sees it at a show feel free to give the roof a good smack to have a feel ;)
