SLICK · Post by **SLICK** » Wed Dec 30, 2009 10:16 pm

Here is what I am working on :

The Car :

1969 Pontiac Bonneville Ambulance :

The Gear :

Kenwood excelon 493 Headunit
Kenwood Wired Remote
Alpine MRP-t220 2 channel
Alpine MRP-M350 monoblock
Memphis Mclass 12 " sub
PG components ( RSd 6cs ) Is this a good choice ?

We are building some panels to basically Hide the gear while its at a show .

The Next project will " hopefully have a lot of PG in it ...

Any thoughts ?

Good pick with the RSD components. Seriously the best bang for the buck speakers from any brand as far as I am concerned. The RSD comp subwoofers are also to die for; lots of output, plays high to low bass effortlessly, and has great timing.

This is not a " ghostbusters " ambulance . IT is a more rarer ambulance , you rarely see them built on the pontiac chassis .

The Cabinet was completely disassembled , Sent out to powdercoat , The hinges , handles , top and trim was polished to a mirror shine with a lot of work , and some killer Metal Polish .

Here you see the headunit and the PG XS components .....

Here is the sub / amp rack

There will be trim panels built to make the install CLEANER looking .

That ambulance looks like a few taxi station wagons I've come across in Rosarito, Mexico.

That cabinet looks bad ass!
