Thats EXCELLENT work, the difference made by having the right shop tools for working with wood is amazing. I usually build everything with a few hand power tools, the couple times I've had a table saw, compound sliding miter saw, and compound panel saw at my disposal, everything has turned out looking so much better than what I can manage with a skilsaw and a well used $15 jigsaw.
Do you mind if I take some ideas from your design for future reference?

thanks,
go ahead, i have no problem with you using it, id give you measurements but alot of the angles for it to follow the seat were cut heavy, check, and recut.
ill tell you, the table saw was key, the one i have was from my grandpa and its an old Delta from the 60's everything is cast iron, its awsome

seats are out of an 85 izuzu trooper, the driver seat and up and down adjustment too!, they fir perfect and are pretty comfortable, the seat covers suck though.
sub facing backwards was for unwanted theives, you cant see any of my stereo looking into my cab other then the head unit, as for sound? it brings the high's out a little, so simply turning the amp a little lower helped,
i think im going to get rid of my rear slider though, because its very rattley
ill get more on it once my new engine is in, im making boxes for the 5x7's for the back two pockets behind the seats, and then carpet and sount proofing, but the engines first
