what all was installed as far as audio equipment?
Its been over 3 years since the install. From what I remember Image Dynamics horns, Dynaudio mids, Focal subs, McIntosh amps, Vampire Wire, McIntosh CD deck, Precision Power processors, a laptop with custom software....

The entire car was stripped and gutted and Dynamatted with 3 layers on all surfaces. Even body panels were removed from the car to sound dampen that couldnt be accessed from the inside.

The front quarter panels of the car body were removed and the kick panel enclosures were cut and welded into the car. The main feature of the car was the kickpanels were motorized based on listener position for different drivers (owner and his wife) who's sitting positions were preset into the motorized seat memory feature. Hundreds of hours were spent auditioning and designing the system to motorize the kick panels. Also the owner of the car owned a software design company and had his technicians develop the program necessary to control everything.

Trunk was built with a combination of fiberglass and plexiglass featuring 2 Focal 15" subs, motorized amp and processor racks, neon accents, and 12" LCD touch screen which gave an interactive demo of the car. It is still to this day the most ambitious project I have ever completed, and was also the most famous.
