new boot install

[CMF_Marshal]

hey guys i started a new boot install today didnt like the other one! there will be 2 12 inch subs one either side and a pioneer amp in the middle all in one smooth fiberglass piece.
i made a mould of the sides today and thats about it and i also made my new fuse holder.

hey guys
pulled the moulds out today and trimmed them up, and smoothed my fuse holder, but the bonnet hits it so i will have to lower it a bit no biggy and i think i want to put a front part on so i probally will.
i would have got more work done today but i had a mass hangover and i cant do much with out materials
cheers guys!
this is what i wan it to look like but all of it about 1-2 inch higher so that its not sitting down below the boot line! and there is a amp in the middle but i havent got it yet

hey guys
an update but not related to the car at all
sadly yesterday afternoon my dog was put down, he was run over, and they could fix him. he was my work partner, he always sat with me in the garage, kept me company, he was my best friend for many years, he was someone you could just lay with for hours and talk to and even know you knew he wouldnt gve you a reply he always looked intrigued and looked like he was listening.
he will be sadly missed, we had him since i was 3. i will miss you ralph!!!!
i want to dedicate all the work and the car to ralph
thanks marshall
