HOW TO PUT SPEAKERS AND CD PLAYER TO PLAY DOO WHOP AT THE CAR SHOWS AND CRUZING. I DONT HAVE THE ROOM ANYWHERE...ANY IDEAS.

That is a very good question. I am building brackets under the dash to mount a couple 4x6 speakers. They will be out of sight but still give out a decent sound. I have dwelled over this problem many many times and this is the only real solution that works for me. My cd player will mount in the seat support crossmember. I will also be putting my ignition and light switch there.
 
i think my is built different than you guys...no supports etc...all molded and double walled. i dont know who the manufacturer was , never been able to find out. i never thought of the motorcycle thingy thanks mad mike. Yeh i love the sound of my motor too GT...425hp but at a show or eating at mickey Ds its nice to hear the doo whop.

I dont think it is exactly the same but close Quad. I will send some close inside pics. This thing is all formed as one unit...inside and out are formed at once...not put together in sections. where do you live and do you have any pics of the rest of your projects.

I have a boombox (with its own antenna) for my Sirius receiver. Plug it into the cigarette lighter plug (yeah, I have one of those), select your era (40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, all Elvis, all Grateful Dead, whatever), and crank it up.
 
When I made my dash I left space for a radio, though no cd player as I wanted a radio with the knobs, (and an mp3 jack instead of cd's)

I plan on making some brackets to mount the speakers under the dash. Once I get the radio I will figure it out...lol

Here is one I want to use, small and you can mount it just about anywhere:

Neatest sound system I ever saw in a bucket was an old lunchbox with a radio and small speakers in it.

i actually am going to redo this panel. the radio is to old and the speakers are to old as well. i have everything under the seat, the fuse panel, msd ignition, kill switch.the horn, my ignition, and all the headlight switches are all on the panel under driver seat as well.
