Well, I'm finally getting somewhere with the car. This is a current install. Also, please bear in mind that this is in no way finished. Nor will this be the final look. I'm getting ready to order some blueprints for the sub enclosure, and I still need to build a rack for the amps. But I threw this together because I was super excited to hear everything.
Here's the deck. Eclipse CD8053
In the doors are a set of Genesis (England) 2 way comps.
Here are the amps and sub. It's a Mini Cooper, so I don't have a lot to work with. but I like the old school class A/B's, and sometimes they run pretty darn big!
Remember, this isn't what it's going to look like. I just got excited!
And if I had a Hifonics viii crossover of some sort, I'd use it.

Just thinking outside the 'cube' what about some racing stripes on the mini matching the amps in the back, also matching subwoofer grills to the racing wheels on the below Wikipedia pic.

I had an SSi10.44 in a ported box. 1.75 cf tuned to 34Hz pushed by a modded PG ZPA0.3 One of the best setups I've ever had. Loud, low and clean.
Well, I'm not too sure how big it will be. I was actually going to take the plunge and buy a blueprint from PWK. I'm not in a position to build my own enclosure, and there's no one locally who seems to care about musicality (as opposed to SPL). There are those who don't like his demeanor all that much, but he seems to have that "car as a bandpass thing" down to a science.

I like what you're saying and I'm partway there. I am going to do a subtle theme of some sort.
Are those 2nd gen Punch 45's with dracula plates on the sinks? Upper left? Anyone know if they came like that or if that was an addon. Awesome. I would love to have all my old saw tooths with the fosgate bar.

I like the part at 2:28 "Lou's system consisted of 20 speakers powered by a single 100 watt amplifier". Couldn't quite make out the amp, but it looked like an Art Series PPI.
I remember a neighborhood kid running Four 12" Punch subs with a punch 45 back in the day.

The amp was the original 'Pro-Mos' high current amp that was rated at 100 watts @ 4 ohms and 400 watts @ 1 ohm.
Lou's Mustang was the highest scoring vehicle at the 1989 IASCA finals.

Thanks for the info. I was trying to guess what amp for a while. I had a feeling someone here would know.
I've always wanted a Pro-Mos Art series, found one locally but could never get the guy to really let go of it even though he posted it for sale.

Those are 1st gen P45's...I've never seen them with the dracula logo plates

Just a few pics. of some install's I did late's 90's early 2000's. Perhaps not old school but certainly starting to gain an element of Nostalgia since many of the products used are still highly saughtafter...

This car rocked out for sure! Always loved the Canton's for their ability to handle volume without breakup or fatigue...
My personal car was a Nissan 200SX with McIntosh, Butler, and Dynaudio gear.
My first set of fiberglass kicks made for the Dynaudio System 240 when they were first released...
Yes Canton, Canton is the shit my brotha!! Love the Dynaudio setup in your ride as well!
