Well bluelake has come and gone....

 

I was too busy workn on the goon to post so here's the short version

 

After the fender rolling we stripped all the cheap plastic "chrome" trim

 

Unfortunately jessi fucked her ankle up...

Diddnt stop her tho!

But in the process of cleaning the goon for blue lake we were finally forced to deal with the broken pass seat mount

Because the rear mount finally broke too :/

Haters gunna hate about cutting holes in door panels but these are flat, already broken, and still useable for templates.

 

So jessi picked up 4 new matching speakers, 50 ft of new speaker cable, and we exchanged the original sony deck for a new one since

It stopped sending sound to the rear speakers and BAM!!!

 

 

The fucking wagon sounds GREAT now!!!!!
