Lets Talk About Vintage Car Audio

[Hotdog]

1988 -1995 is right in my prime.. those were the days. There use to be a shop in town that I bought all my Equipment at and I remember getting my first credit card and I went strait to the store and maxed it out on stereo equipment.

1979 Old Cutlass Supreme

2 Fosgate Power series 12's

Punch 150 on each 12

Power 300 on mids and highs

I loved the way that car sounded.. I think that system was tuned at 20hz back then.

I had a couple friends that worked there that went to RTI back in the day.. they were the ones that show me how to do all the car audio back then.

One of my friends still has a pair of Halfler 8's that are in good condition.. and I have a old Fosgate PA-1 that I am going to install in my system this summer.

here are couple old school stuff I have left.

anyone hear remember George Harrison, Toma Holland and i cant remember his name but he had a hurst with so many horn mids he could hurt you it was a rockford vehicle i remeber george had a 280 z that was blown and i think it had 2 18's a big ass airbrush of a lions head on the hood

i had 12 15's in a toyota truck that was cut a walk through with some power 650's and power 300's and a sony 10 disk changer that was mounted on a special mount that had four springs to keep it from skipping when the bass hit. I was room mates with a dude named Greg Record and he had 10 15's in a monte carlo that was named Shockwave

good times

I remember seeing that 280Z in an old magazine and the name Greg Record sounds familiar.

I graduated in '91

had a '74 VW Beatle... No back seat, 2 Punch 15's a Punch 150 on each one, a mix of MTX stuff in the front off of a MTX amp with a Pyramid "Pull OUT" tape deck that looked like an Alpine, with a Pyramid EQ in the glove box....

Damn I miss that little car
