Re: Crusty Rusty Leaky Squeaky 67 Step

I'm back to doing some sheetmetal work. Built speaker enclosures today for the door panels. I have a set of 6x9 MBQuart reference speakers for the stereo system and decided to put them in the doors. Now is the perfect time to do so since I'm replacing the door bottoms on both sides. That way I can spotweld, paint and seal the boxes before they get trapped in the interior of the door. I know I took the lazy way out by cutting up the doors, but I couldn't come up with a better solution. Not enough room to put them under the seats and kick panel speakers aren't worthy of a 350W amp.

While I was at it, I made the patch for the rust spot in the corner of the door. Just need to cut out the rot and whip out the mighty MIG. (See what you missed B.G. - don't worry though, I'm saving the other side for you!)
