Hey Man, sorry to hear about your accident, you also may feel alright right now but go see a doctor. I got into an accident about two years ago with my F150, offset front impack on my part doing about the same speed reending a 70's full size chevy. I felt fine for about 3-4 months, but after that a whole bunch of stuff started hurting on me. I could barely move my neck and i lost feeling in my arms, hands, and upper back. i finally went to the doctor shortly after that and found out that i had fractured three of my vertibre, gave myself a concusion, my neck started to develop a reverse arch and i had pinched and just about killed a bunch of nerves that go from my back to my arms and hands. Granted i wasn't going that fast i i felt fine for a while, but because it took me so long to go to the doctor, i have still been seeing since then. The best part is though, if you have full coverage, your insurence must pay for you medical costs for at least 5 years after the accident. Anyway, good to hear your alright but you should really get checked out by a doctor.

Btw, why are'nt you going to mardi gras? My sister-in-law's Mom is going to that. I've never been, but I hear it's one hell of a party.
Yea it is one hell of a party. Once you've been down here for a while you just kinda look at it as 'its been done'. plus two weeks before today (Mardi Gras) there are parades all around the city and I pretty much get my fill from that. Plus I had a really rough night on Saturday

Im off to go snap a few pictures...

But after most of it was done I got her look pretty good again.




Those are the picture of it now. I took off the front lience plate and added the 'rubber ducky antenna'. You think it looks better with the stock antenna or that one? ALso you think it looks better with or with out the front for lience plate?

Thumbs up lookin' good!

I can't even tell it's been wrecked! Your truck looks awesome man. I like the shorter antennea alot better. It looks kinda stealthy! The liscense plate is ok, but if you had a chrome grille surround it would help compliment it more. I like it without it the best. IMO. Looks like they did an excellent job on your truck dude. Very nice!

Thanks...Yea I kinda like it with out the lience plate too and after looking at it for a bit I think I like the smaller antenna too. Just kinda need someone to back me up and confim my thoughs

I cant wait till I start doing to other stuff to the outside, but right now 99% of my efforts are going into the stereo.

Well right now Im in the process of gathering things. So far what I have is:

Focal Utopia 165w3s (Front Speakers)
(2) JL 10w7s (Subs)
(2) Zapco C2k 6.0s (Amps for subs)
Eclipse CD8051 (Head Unit...But its for sale and will most likely be replaced with a Pioneer Premier P9 and DEQ combo or an Eclipse CD8053 and Audiocontrol DQT)

As far as amps for highs Im looking into them. Right now I think I am going to get two BK Butler Tube Driver Blues.

But thats the general 'jist' of it I guess.

Here are a few pictures:

I've got it listed in my sig. I bought a kenwood kdc-316s cd player, Infinity Reference 5x7's for the doors, Dynamatted behind the speakers in the doors, and a 150 watt RS Series 8" Bazooka bass tube. That bass tube thumps for an 8"! And the Inny's put out pure high's. My system sounds good for what it is. But I only have about $670 in it. Good luck with your system. Looks like alot of work.

Well the truck is totalled and it will be a while before I get another vehicle. Looks like a Expedition will be next. Just got a 97 Mustang GT convertable. When we get another vehicle I'll get the GT. It's a trade off but I can live with it!
