Re: Project 78 High Sierra
How does the sub sound? Been looking at stuff for the C50.

Re: Project 78 High Sierra
Sub sounds good...Its not incredible but its well worth it and has a real nice sound with only 4" of depth on the box...So it fit perfectly behind the seat.
Thanks!

Re: Project 78 High Sierra
It looks to me like that spot of red you're seeing is just the reflection of red paint on the gloss black.

Re: Project 78 High Sierra
Well i wanted to do four patches today...Both fenders and the cab corners....I failed......My flange and punch tool died and i only completed the one fender which was paint cuz i couldnt fully flange or punch it...So i used pliers and made do......Spot welding didnt happen much but with some grinding and finding bondo i got it done....So now it just needs some bondo to smooth it out and fix a few lil holes/gaps
SAFETY FIRST!! LOL

Re: Project 78 High Sierra
Your right..It was just a reflection..I put most of the trim back in last night other then the dashpad and door panels....The headliner actually doesnt look awful once installed. So far so good....

Re: Project 78 High Sierra
They are hooked up and sound amazing! Only prob is it does get in the way of the e brake.....But that also could be because mine are bowed out ever so slightly on the bottom due to some welds

Re: Project 78 High Sierra
After soap and water, drying, and hitting it will alcohol I hit it with 4 coats of Eastwood Self Etching black primer......Has a few spots Ill need to hit with a small bit of bondo and then i can get a lil sanding in before I hit it will some more sandable primer....
Notice all the paint dust on my house? This thing had 2 - 3 different coats of paint on it...sheesh.....The under side will just be rust repair and nothing special
