Default 68 Camaro owners I need some help.

My Project car came just as a shell and nothing more. After seeing another member sell speaker boxes Ive decided Im also going to offer some. Heres the workings of a 10in rear sub box. This is the early stage of fiberglass work. But it gives you a basic idea of what Im after. The box will fit in the corner and is form fit that way it doesnt take up much trunk space.
Next Ill be working on kick panels up front. Problem is my car has no interior so Im not sure whats in the driver and passenger side area's. Heres a picture of what Im talking about. If some one can shoot me a pic of this area it would help a lot.

Looks good!

The main obstacle will be the parking brake....sorry but I don't have a pic.

Default parking brake is pretty close

to the kick panel. You will not get away with much more than about 1 or 1.5 inches from the inner structure of the cowl.

Not sure if you can see much from these pics. I will get some more if you like. I put 5.25 in the cowl area and where the vent controls were on the kick panel, cut those out and mounted tweeters.

Heres what I have so far. Its just the inner structure so it not much to look at. This just shows how I used the area and got my air space. As soon as I test these in a car with a ebrake Ill finish em.

Default They look good

You will need to relocate the E-brake as it will never fit. You may want to hang some pedals in there, may be close on the clutch.

Yeah thats why I want to test fit them in a car first before I go further. If it doesnt fit I can make adjustments.

Big thanks to gear head garage and the guys at the shop. Jason from gearhead let me come down and do a test run in a car and the guys gave me some feedback. Looks like the pods up front wont work with the stock ebrake. So for now this project is on hold.
Ill keep going on the rear sub box. Again thanks to Jason and the crew!
