Re: High School Project Build II

Love this project. I had a good shop teacher in high school but we did not have enough students that wanted to be involved in a project like this though. I did do some rust work and painted a couple of cars during my shop class. Love it!

Re: High School Project Build II

Thanks guys for all the compliments!!!
We started back to school last week
I have to go through safety for a few more days - we get new classes after Christmas, most of the original students got to come back - but picked up about 8-10 new students.
I'll keep the pictures and progress up to date as soon as we get rolling again.

Re: High School Project Build II

Been out for a week - due to snow
I decided to cut down the harness while we were out
We are finishing it up this week - followed LT1swap.com on the conversion

Heck yeah!
RC900C-119 radio with 23-73 knobs
I dont know on which speaker - we have a non-A/C cab but we are putting A/C in it and using factory center vent -- is there a difference in between factory A/C and non A/C cab speaker mountings?

Thank you very much Matt.
