Hey everyone. My name's Eric, I currently live in Orlando. I've been around cars my entire life and like to think I know a little bit about em. I have a '00 Cavy that I've owned for probably a year now. Unfortunately, it has a 2.2L OHV and 3 speed auto in it, which will change. Over the next year or two I'll be completely overhauling my car, seeing as how I've done nothing except necessary repairs and a decent sound system so far.

Here's a few pics for you guys (By the way, all the body damage, actually all of issues are from the previous owner. I don't understand how people can neglect a car so much..)

Thanks man.

Lol yeah it's a 15". The box is overall something like 4.5 cubic feet tuned to 35hz. To be honest, it's been a while since I made it so I kinda forgot the specs. I had planned to carpet it but considering the place I ordered my stuff from screwed me over, that didn't happen. So I decided to put it in as is and fix it later. And yes, for anyone wondering, that IS one of the trunk torsion bars propping the trunk open... I had to take them off to get that box to fit. I'll be working on putting some hydraulic arms in there soon.


As far as future plans, lemme just leave the answer at yes. Way too many to list to be honest. Car wasn't taken care of well, as you can see by the hood (that's actually the second hood in the life of the car) and the insanely cracked upper dash and the black center trim panels. It'll be a work in progress over the next year or two. As far as the order though, it's going to be interior, performance, exterior. Gotta make it a sleeper before I make it obvious, haha.
