69 Firebird T/A Trunk Install
I just completed my trunk install and thought I would share some pics.
Bottom well is covered in carpet. Bottom side panels are 3/4 mdf board with cleats to support center panels. There are 3 center panels in all. Two smaller ones to complete the frame for the larger center panel
Back cleat ties the two bottom side panels and supports the bottom of the back panel. All panels are made from 1/4 luan plywood.
Back panel and panels the cover the hinges
side panel covering the battery fits snug to hold back panel and hinge panel
A friend of mine owns a cap embroidery company so he embroidered the firebird logo and the custom pontiac victory flag logo for me.
Plus you get a bonus room to store your stuff just in case you have problems on the road

No, I picked it up from Heartbeat City. Next on the list is your trunk lock release.

Lol, thanks fast400, that's why I posted so others could get their creatives juices flowing. Copying is a form of flattery anyway. Originally Posted by fast400

Thats what I always think too. It doesn't matter if someone does it simular that just confirms they liked what they had seen....a compliment

Sam did you use 3/4 mdf for covered boards. They look thicker than 1/4" luan.
