Very cool those seat sure do not look comfortable. A ms1000 might have a hard time fitting
How wide is the back end of the car?

The seats are not finished yet... They are mounted, but will be complete at the end.. There is a MSK there in the first 2 Picts.. Not to mention placing it in the truck would of worked as well.. I just wanted it as part of the car when looking at it without opening the trunk..
The engine is a 354 hemi.. I'm making a custom alt bracket and placing 2 beefed up alts on it..

The cardboard on the seat is what it is... The amp is behind the seats.. Zoom in!. Its in the building stage still so what's scene isn't final product.. Its a tight area back there and we didn't want to lay it flat on the floor.. There is a custom metal amp rack that holds the amp.. 2 fans will be under that amp on the floor blowing up at the amp.. None of my final amps will be in until the end..

This is killer. Most rods dont have big systems but you are squeezing it in. Great job.

Yeah!! They are not meant to be like I'm making it.. Most people will probably frown at it, but to each there own.. If I'm looking for speed I'll just jump in my Bentley.. The only problem with that is the 24's leak air because they are 3 piece wheels.. If the air isn't rite the tires blow out when you hit reflectors.. Shit! Pot holes cost a car to fix.. It looks good, but isn't practical at all..

It'll probably be loud as hell too won't it? The car I mean, not the system. Every hot rod I've seen had a very throaty exhaust report, which would hurt the sound of the stereo system. This is the main reason I haven't done anything to the engine/exhaust in my truck. I want it quiet.

Looks great. Can't wait to see some update pics as you go.
Might have to go on a road trip and see your toys in person. I want a ride in that big ass monster truck. Lol

i just realized my first post didnt go threw... the reason this trend was started was to try and figure out what amps to use and on witch speakers... im running 4 original round solo 12's.. the kick panels have a 8 & 6 in each.. i think a 6 & 5 with 2 tweets are going in the doors.. then the back behind the seats on the sides we are thinking about 2) 6's or a 6 & 5 with maybe a tweet... i had a FRANK,SOFA and a MPS 2500 nickel plated. this install ill be running my MS1000 nickel... theres 4 batteries in the trunk and we are going to put more in... i have a custom bracket being made so i can run dual alt's...
will yall PLEASE share your thought on what amps i should run on witch speakers? im thinking put the MSK on the 4 12's... the rest is in the air... im kinda stuck on thoughts...

Man that alot of gear. Can I ask why a mps2500?
What brand are the speaker and power ratings.
For speakers
Is see at 4 ohm you have 125x2 30x4 and 50x2
Are you going to use your blues?

JK didn't you get the two Nicked 2250's? I would do the 2 2250's and 1 1000. What other amps did you have in mind the Frank and the SOFA? Is Whitenoise doing the install? if so what does he think or you name off the amps that you have that you are not using and start a poll and we can vote.
