1987 Saloon Re-build.

Finished up the boot this weekend.

Started by making a timber frame for the side panels.

Then made up some cardboard templates

Transferred the outines onto 18mm MDF along the back of the seats and 4mm Hardboard for the sides.

Carpeted it up and fitted the subs and amp.

Carpeted the arches then fitted it all in.

The side panels are held in place with velcro to so visible fixings are seen. You can still see a little blue behind the hinges, so next time I have nothing to do, going to take the sides back out and carpet behind there.

Cheers for all the comments,

Shaun.

I was waiting for someone to ask or spot that they are not free air subs.

They actually have less air to move in due to them being sealed against the MDF. They'll do for the time being (more for show than sound if I'm being honest) and I'll enquire about a pair of more suited subs in due course.

They still give you a good back massage when you're sitting in the back and Elton John, I mean Dr Dre is in the CD player..........

Cheers for the comments guys.

Just got the wheels to get stuck into now.

Shaun.

fantastic mate!! the whole car looks spot on!!!
