HPI_Savage25 Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Wow is all I have to say! I am a junior in HS. I took automotive class last year and I am taking the advanced class this year. Anyways one of the teachers brought in an OLD toyota truck, probably from the 70s I am thinking. So I had to seal the windshield, leaking like a bitch! Sealed it and got it water tight. Then the instructors says I need to get the radio working, and he knows I am into stereos big time so I do all the stereo work in the shop. I pull the dash and all out, to begin with it has a NISSAN radio that the guy cut the dash all apart for, then when I took the radio out, the ground wasn't even hooked up and the power wire was just laying under the dash.... So I undid a few screws and found a nice ground, everything behind dash is all metal so that was easy. I then had to find a switched fuse to use for the power... Got all that hooked up, and then found out it only has ONE speaker, and that ONE doesn't even work! So I grabbed 2 ford speakers I had laying in the shop and put those in....had to split off from 1 speaker to run 2 since the radio was only meant for one.

HPI_Savage25 Posted August 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Yeah this truck is OLD! Has a 20R motor in it...idles TERRIBLE but runs good from what I can tell. Antenna is crappy but as long as it isn't full blast it is clear.... I will try and get some pics if it is still in the shop tomorrow.
