Loud Systems in G-bodies

[basssquared 10+ year member]

has anyone ever hooked up a system in a G-body i'm wondering if the trunk rattle is gonna be super nasty since its so old. I have a 1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme brougham edition thats getting painted jet black right now i already have 20" black Mazeti rims for it i currently have a panasonic 7" touchscreen and a db-electric 200 amp alt 1/0 stinger wiring, a pair of RD 1750.1s and a 12" Matts juggernaut i still haven't decided if i'm gonna just get another juggernaut or sell the one i have and go with a pair of 12" BTLS i know they could take more power but i'm sure one 1750.1 a piece would be sufficient and leave me with room to upgrade well any comments ideas or suggestions are more than welcome

Where's the pics? I have always liked the G-body cars. Sounds like this project has a lot of potential.

Cutlass he built down at the shop. 6 Ascendant Chaos 12s in a bandpass on 3 Clarion 1500s. Thing was nasty loud for a trunk car. Would blow hair around with the doors open and the T-Top off.

In my old 87 cutlass I started off with 4 10" powered by a Punch 200 DSM amp and the trunk was almost louder than the bass itself but coming from Miami that was the Shit back then. But like everyone else says deadener is your friend.

its almost been a year and i still don't have my car back but moving the juggernaut around one of my dumb *** friends ripped one of the tinsels off the former so it needed reconing and instead i just traded one of my 1750.1s for a HDC3 15 so looks like thats gonna be my system anyone know whats the biggest box i can fit in the trunk of a G-body?

It so sad when someone takes a nice g body, and nigs it out.
