That is one nice looking set up. Wish I was putting that in my bird!! Good luck and have fun with that project...
Didnt REALLY REALLY want it until I put 4:10's in the diff. Then I found out what "screaming down the freeway" really meant. I run a tallish tyre so it helps a bit, but at 60MPH im sitting on about 3000rpm. Done the math, with the 0.78 OD, 60MPH will look more like 2400rpm. I can definitely live with that.
Saved up a long time for the unit, happy to finally see it getting put inth car.

That dose look like a major problem. Look's like it was long over due to be replaced. I called and looked for those speakers and they are proud of them to say the least. But every thing on these car's are not cheap either. Your welcome and post away now. :thumbsup2:

Those are like a 3-4 ohm speaker you can get a 10 ohm dual cone in the same size and adapt it. I have a box in the garage with the info on it if you are interested, I'm using one on my daughters charger.

I found a 4 ohm replacement. Vendor info attached. QUESTION: Is there any value in the old core speaker, for the purest that want to get it reconed?20200505_212804.jpg 20200505_212818.jpg 20200505_212849.jpg

Yes I talked to them also. I see you got the dual. Hope you like it. The old one is probably not worth having fixed. Just my thought's.

Just to say Fred will put one in to have the hole filled. But do want to put two speakers some where up front. After putting the dash in and all will see where their is room to mount some up front. Wanted to put them in the kick panel area but don't think their is enough room to install them their.

Back in the day when we installed an 8 track or cassette player we would install round speakers in the lower door panel, towards the front of the door and a pair of oval speakers on the rear window deck.. Old school version of surround sound..

It would be hard for me to cut a hole in my new door panel, iPhone and wireless speakers for me. Back in the day door panels for these things didn't cost $400 dollars a set. Lol
