well, i finally put some work into my 85 240GL. Put the stereo in last week. Pioneer mp3 player deck. Pioneer 4" 2 way front speakers, and rockford fosgate 6x9 4 ways in back.
only the rockfords get the pics though.
Also, I put a new exhaust on it, so I could actually hear the stereo. It isn't quite finished yet, I want the tip to be poking out the side of the car, because as it is, it tubs at while cruising, asnd is louder than it needs to be inside. Also, it sounds a bit ricey at highway speeds
, I'm thinking a resonator tip will clear some of that up. In a perfect world, I would have used a 45 degree bend, and not a 90, also it would have been mandrel bent, but this is just a beater DD, so whatcha gonna do. Now to switch out interiors, and replace that damnable windshield. (I think I'll get one with the antenna in the glass, and weld a nickel into the hole for the janky front antenna). While I'm doing the interior, I'll have to get some plywood to cover the big holes in the rear floor.
Yay for the Rust Belt, and MN's lack of smog checks.
