This is my Audiobahn a4601X 600 watt 4 channel amp. This is definitely a well made amp. < > < > This is a pic of my backseats that I sewed by hand. < > < > Another pic of my backseats. Believe me these things took along time to make but were very worth it. < > < > Yet another pic of my backseats. What can I say I'm proud of them. I had never done anything like that before. Everywhere there is a leather strip I had to sew by hand by the way. < > < >

This is what my car looked like at my very first carshow in Vincennes.  No door panels no passenger seat no ceiling, no backseats just the dash and the driver seat.  I managed to get my first trophy too. It's in the pic at the bottom. < > < > This is a pic of my car when it was near bare. < > < > This is the bottom part of my passenger door right after I finished putting the crushed velvet on it. < > < > Here's a bad pic of my door solenoid that opens my door.  That's a 50lb solenoid that cost a $100 not cheap. < > < >

Here's a close up shot of my driver door all back together. I got help with the tint from my friend Travis. Thanks Travis! < > < > here's a pic from the driver's seat when I had the dash out.  Now I drove around with it like that for about 3 months because some people wouldn't help me.  i finally had to do everything myself. < > < > This is the original seats the color was faded a bit. This is also what the backseats looked like before I fixed them. < > < > This was harder to do than it looks. It took me a couple hours to get that lock off of there. < > < >

This is where I fixed all the small wholes on my hood. Nothing a little bondo won't do. < > < > Here's a pic of my dash back in. < > < > And here is what it looked like before. < > < > This is my passenger door again with it closed. < > < >

There's all the panels to the back of my car right before I reinstalled them. < > < > This is a pic of my seats right after I finished sewing them all together.  I was very happy with myself. < > < > You can see a little bit of the detail in the stitching here. < > < > I couldn't afford a $400 dollar steering wheel at the time so i just fixed my old steering wheel to hold me over. < > < >

Now that's the kinda of trunk space you look for in a late model car... ; ) < > < > I don't know why I took this pic but I did. < > < > The original tires on my car. The Pontiac Rally II wheels. < > < > My very first tropy I won for my car at the Vincennes V.U. Classic Car & Hot Rod Show. < > < >
