'custom' guage pods?!
here is a pic, of 1/2 of my guage pods.
I am a "custom"/imagineer/fiberglass junkie, who will not even pay $30?, for a guage pod for my car, when i can make a "custom" set of pods... (i hate that word, due to its misuse)
so, what i did was, made two just like this pic, and glass'd em 2gether to fit perfectly, in my TT...
...i also have made my own(2) front bumper covers, due to the old fashiond look of a 1g... i will put up a couple of the 'not done' photo's cuz i don't have my camera n emore, 4 the finishd ones.. remember!!! its NOT DONE..i think its ugly..
...i also, tried to patent a sub enclosure that i furbish'd, right when bazooka came out with an 8"woofer inside a nitrous bottle,
my enclure was for a 10"W3 JL audio, made sleeper,(like nitrous) out of a metal 5 gallon VP race gas pail. i made four of them, and each one had the sub facing down w/ pail raised off floor, sit'n on a designated shelf, of my astro for haul'n my bike to the races. the enclosure volume was .75 cu. ft, converted from gallons, and had roughly 3/4" of airtight fiberglass throughout.. they sound'd so good in this spherical enclosure it wasn't even funny. NEway, to get a patent, i need'd to get phillips66 and VP's approval to use there sticker, and find out who manufactured there cans... and get there app. too.
i do some work for 'marine audio', a friend owns that, and he and i both got into fiberglass 2gether in high school days 'bout ten years ago... we have done some "custom" stuff, on a good chunk(roughly 1% lol) of the boats here in MN, and im talk'n, lots of $... yachts, cruisr's, ski boats, pontoons, and even a few fish'n boats...cars 2.
neway, that is what custom is... custom. not manufactured in quantity.

Nice bet it's hot now. Though what's with blankin out the taillights on the van? (I understand blankin the plates).
