So i didn't really find any where else to post this but I have a 1986 monte carlo that I am currently restoring.

I will be posting pictures through the whole process, I think you guys are going to be really surprised xD

This is the most recent car i did, 2001 cadillac seville

1500 watt Rocksford monoblock amp

1500 watt Hyphonics for highs/mids

two 12" kicker L7s with custom blow through box through the armrest pillar in the back seat

4x 500 Watt bullet tweeters in the doors

4x 6" eminence Mids in the doors (1 in each door)

2x 8" eminence alpha 8a's (back dash)

2 earthquake 4" Tweets (back dash)

2 Selenium Tweets (back dash)



This is where the monte carlo starts

Just got back from the pick n pull, found two good doors from a 85 LS monte carlo, trim lines seem the same so i got em for 250$

Gonna bolt em on in a week or so, cars more then likely going to be my painters next project, but currently hes working on a 1969 camero complete restoration (a 20,000$ Job) He has it stripped to bare metal, completely disassembled and on the rotary mounts, hopefully he will be done with that within the next two weeks



Found a grey dash from my buddy jerry, he said he'd sell me it, and install it for 300 bucks, no cracks in it, he said he would repaint it aswell (he is another painter) but he doesn't quite do the kind of work the monte needs (Chemical stripping and a hell of alot of body work) all the paints bad on it


Still looking for a trunk lid -.-


Found a 400 Small block with some niceish heads for 200$ up in tampa, gonna take a trip up there in alittle (Yep, puttin a new motor in it too!) Goin for a 400 sbc pushin 400+ HP



Went to mad marks, ordered new deck, new amp, and gave him the measurements for a new blow-through box

My best friends Monte after him and his dad replaced motor with LT1 and 6 Spd Manual Transmission.
They painted it themselves.

I even think he has the same caddy as you ROFL.
2002 I think SLS?
