shoulda took that top of the back seat out, lowered the box down some, and mounted the amps against the back wall. No technical input, just lowering the box down and using all available space IMO....

well since you asked...

I didn't/don't really have anything "good" to say but maybe I can point you in a "better" direction.

1: Use better wood...not stuff that has been exposed to...water/rain from the looks of it.

2: Correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like NAILS through/holding together the 2x4's....?

BUY SOME SCREWS!

3: In either case^^^ Nails/screws....I don't see ANY glue..which means AT BEST you didn't use enough...and MORE LIKELY, used NONE.

4: I would try to cover up the bare wood w/ carpet/paint/or vinyl, etc...

Other than that It's basically the opposite of "my style" but that's why it's not mine. It's yours.

Just step back and think to yourself "what can I do with my materials and skill level to make this better"...and if nothing comes to mind...come ask us...we all got buttholes that don't stink :P

The amps on the back wall is not a bad idea but I could see it easily "going badly/downhill" so I'd say just try to clean up what you got so far.

I think you can do a better job than that. But you're keen which is a good thing. Just build slowly and take your time. I would pull that out and start again, but in the end it's up to you.

while i was cutting my 2x4's it started pouring rain!!!!!! nonstop for around 2 hours. thats one of the reasons why it looks weathered.

i was going to, but, after days of trying to get the bitch out and not having enough room to get my angle grinder back there to cut the bolts i just quit with it.

i even took my impact wrnech to the muh fucka with no luck of even getting the nut to break.
