2015 Chevy Sonic/Wall/4 PSI 15's/SA 6K/Active/Arc/CDT/Singer/US Alt/XS


Recommended Posts

The bearing in my Ryobi orbital sander is going out.  Got a new orbital and a detail sander.  This Dewalt has a vacuum attachment, which is wayyy better than using packing tape

Stance is great considering the #walllife this car is living

Sanding, painting interior, and staining the face are all up next.  Need to decide on a stain color... I'm considering a walnut for a classic wood finish.

Ready to sand

Done sanding, ready for paint on the inside and stain on the outside.

Buying some stain tomorrow to toy around with the color a bit.  The wood is especially light now that some of the veneer is sanded away.  May have to get two colors and try both before I stain these faces

Got down on some staining last night, after deciding on the PolyStains color "Honey"

First coat.  About to go scuff it and do a second coat...

Also trying to figure out how to get (2) 8's in each door...

Read a post by TaylorFade concerning NON-PA 8" mids.  I ended up buying (4) of these Silver Flutes last night.

Gonna run the TS parameters in TermLab and determine how I'm gonna work these into the build.

Cut some 3/8" aluminum threaded rod and got the hardware ready:

Nuts are also aluminum.  The washers against the wood are steel and the crush washers under the nut are copper.
