That bug you mentioned in the background is going to be seen everywhere soon. it was built by one of the shops that the show Overhaulin uses. It has custom one off Chip Foose wheels, a completely custom dash all made from scratch and stereo system too with a 5.1 center channel speaker system. VERY well done and can be heard for miles. Im talking very clean sound from lows to highs. Here are som more pics of it.







I'm sorry, but I have to say besides all the man hours that I'm sure went into it, I find that install pretty unsavoury. There's no flow to it, speakers just stuck everywhere and I'm sure the sound quality is lacking pretty badly. If loud is what you're looking for, I'm sure it will perform, but for everything else it leaves me a little wanting. I'm quite certain Chip Foose would agree!

I LOVE that primer green suby conversion! That's going to be one to watch in my opinion. Looks very well engineered and those wheels look sick.
