So I finally finished the trunk last weekend.







We (Shadow & I) install the DEI Boom.







My daughter did come out to make us laugh a couple times.





However she did leave when clean up time was upon us.

Marty, Your lucky to have a good helper. My daughters are old enough to have their own kids which are still too young to help Vavoo in the garage. My grandson does have to go check the car out everytime he comes over so atleast there's hope for me.

Looking good!

I have a couple years with this one and the bad news is I have one that has two months to go to get her license.

What's nice is sometimes the girls come out to just hang out. It sure does make the time go by faster.

That's awesome Marty. I love everything about the concept of this car, how you built it, planned use, and family involvement. Fun experiences all around and the essence of modern hot rodding.

As most of my friends know I am a little bit ADD and I tend to over think thinks and organize projects before I start especially when I have someone coming over to help me.

Step 1 is to get the dog bed and lay all the hardware out by size.



Step 2 well I didn't plan for this and a trip to the local Sears hardware was necessary. Needed to get a wire wheel for the bench grinder so I could clean up the clamps as they oxidized a little bit over the last couple years.



First step was to put the trunk bars in which went fairly well.



Oh that's Mike working in the inside of the car. We figured it was my car so I should be the one inside the trunk.





We also installed the Kicker 6 x 9 Speakers.



Since I did all 12 point hardware on Syborg I wanted to do 6 point ARP's throughout this car.

We also installed a new package tray with a slightly different look.



Uniting the hoop to the down bars is pretty straight forward. Just make sure you install the clamps on the correct side as they are side specific and there is a left and right half that must go together.



Quick reference is the "T" faces up.



In order for the clamps to look nice the lower clamps are a tight to the body which take a little extra time to tighten.



Door Bars installed and cage is in.
