Re: Big Red

I often drive long stretches without the radio on. But when I want to listen to music, a good sound system is key. Not necessarily elaborate, but good speakers especially. Those look like they don't have anything left attaching the cone to the housing. Wow. Putting it together with parts that you mostly have on hand is even better.

IMO... Good audio is only second to good running condition.
doesn't need to be competition level, but good enough that it's not distracting (harsh or distorted).

Being a "car guy", and collecting for the last 20 years (my ex would say hoarding), is both a curse and a blessing...
I have lots of parts on hand, mostly from previous vehicles, but many that were too good of a deal to pass up (if i knew it would be useful in the future).
I try not to think about just how much money is sitting in boxes, or gathering dust.

anyone need a new starter for an '84 RX7, or a bumper for an Opel GT?
Maybe a center console for late 90's chev (one in gray and one in tan)
