97 F-150

We haven't had internet service at home for a while (equipment failures), but we're back on now.

Here's a couple of pics of the door panels getting fitted to the truck.

If you've ever built panels, you know that, even though it doesn't look like much progress, there's a bunch of hours in going from the work bench to fitting a vehicle properly. I'll probably end up with over 100 hours in just the doors.

those look good man. i cant wait to see and hear this thing when it is finished

Thanks, but I think the panels are still pretty ugly, but I can't wait to hear it either. At this rate, I'm shooting for next spring before I can really get it fired up. However, if any DB Warz or local events pop up, I can always throw that old t-line box in my wagon and go for some giggles (it's probably louder in it than it was in the truck anyway).

I got to make some sawdust this weekend!

lol. looks like you had some fun.

I'm making an effort to get the truck functional for Wake the Dead. I ran all my 1/0 yesterday (6 runs from the battery rack to the front). I also made up my twisted pairs, ran the remote wire to the back, and got the head unit back in the dash. I ended the day working on the enclosure some.

I was planning to seal up the enclosure today, but that's not going to happen as planned. Hopefully, I can sneak in a few hours one night this week and get this thing playing before next weekend.

come on we are all ready to see it. keep up the good work!

THe F-150 is now back to stock interior w/a small setup (4 channel PPI running components and one 8" in a 1/3 cu ft sealed. It is nice to have all the damping in a daily driver though.

My attention/effort is going to a different build now.

Wish I could have seen the old build!
