[QUOTE="HandOverFist, post: 8470894, member: 644652"] Snowed in atm and I figured this would be a good time to garner some expert advice for a new car stereo system. I'm in the middle of a complete restoration of my 1967 El Camino and it is in need of a modern sound system. I would like to get a package together so I can do any under dash installs/wiring before the dash panel goes back together.
