Build a box for my 69 chevelle
Nothing to fancy, but i wanted some trunk for tools and groceries.
Here are the plans i drew up.
This should fit any A-Body from 68-72 seeing as they have the same trunk floor.
Enjoy

I would actually go for a full sheet brace cut out. If your read the notes on bracing on the JL web site. you can never have too much. Even just using W0s.

1985 Ford Crown Victoria 2 door next project.

He already built it, so it's a little late to change the bracing now.

Yeah i was thinking of bracing it with a full center section and routing out an upper area and lower area with a 2 in wall left in the center, top and bottom.
I dont see any flex but im sure there is a little. It sounds great though.
