Getting ready to throw some 18's back under this bitch.

Awards

Truck made it on NOPI TUNERVISION on the speed channel, it was the Bristol TN show coverage. 2nd Place Audio Adrenaline Sound Comp. First run I hit a 146.2 and on my second run I did only a 143.7 but my amp went into safe mode on the second run. Dammit!
I was running:
4x6 infinity kappa plates in dash.6 1/2 Kenwoods in the doors. JL Audio 1" tweeters in the pillars, Alpine CDA9831. JL Audio 500/1 amp, pushing 1 S10L7 square kicker sub in a ported enclosure. (146.2 in compitition, that's rocking for a 10)

Future Plans

Hydraulics(check), 22s(naa 18's), new paint with graphix(check), suicide doors(be done by H2K7), More billet for the insides. Smooth inner bed.
Going to try to have it redone by H2K7, this time it's going to be black, gunmetal, and silver. New wheels, all juice hid under the bed, suicided, and smoothed bed.....hopefully. Got about a month to finish it up. Wish me luck.
