April 25, 2018. Even cars meant to be a daily driver need some custom touches. Well I have officially started work on a custom rear decklid cover. After removing the 3rd brake light I was left with an ugly hump in the middle along with a gaping hole. This had to go. Next I thought about how bad the speakers looked due to the missing factory covers. Well this just wouldn't do either. So to get started I cut out the hump and filled in the holes. Next I soaked the whole thing down with fiberglass resin. Now it is drying and waiting for the next part of the project.

And a couple more pics to finish off the day. This part is nice and solid now. Still a long way to go. This is going to take a lot of resin. A lot more than I was expecting, and here I am just getting started with this project.

Well I replaced the Boss 6.5" door speakers with a set of Infinity Reference series 6.5" speakers. Who ever installed the Boss speakers didn't even bother to remove the 6.5" to 5.25" adaptors. They just jammed a few angled screws in and hoped for the best. I also discovered.that the drivers door rc10f has been replaced by a shop in the past. I wonder how many wreaked this poor car has been in.
