Hi: if you can send me an e-mail to let me know how I can get on a list or how can particepate on the pimp my car. I have a 59 caddy limo that is just sitting and that I
dream to fix some day (that’s dreaming all right). Thank you.
Wow.. I already had a top of the line (P2 400) laptop installed in my car YEARS and YEARS ago. Sound rigged to a phat phoenix gold and two punch XLC 12″ subs. Projector in place of the sunroof.
I may even still have the diagrams. I don’t have the car anymore. totaled it when I dropped the tranny crossing over a set of train tracks. you guess what happened next. *cries*
