Garage Mod #3: bumpin tunes

[scheides]

Just thought I'd post a follow-up to this thread I posted long ago:

I had some speakers that I got from a roommate at the place I lived before I bought my current house. They've sat doing nothing but hold a cheapo radio and a wrench from time to time. My neighbor just got a fancy new onkyo hdmi receiver and a light bulb went on in my head when I was looking at his new one:

me: 'what was wrong with your old one?'
him: 'the display doesn't work...really annoying when flipping radio stations or trying to do anything besides turn it on/off'
me: 'oh yea? how much you want for it'
him: 'if you carry it, you can have it!'

zing! Behold, new garage stereo!

I don't want pesky thieves having an extra reason to come in, so I stuck it in a cabinet on a wall, and tucked all the wires away all nice:

So, I just keep the doors shut and open one to flip it on/off whenever I want to listen to 93x :) Came with a remote that goes on the tool box, which has a seek function, so as long as I don't get a hankering to listen to cds, I'm in good shape :D

That thing is called the Widow Maker around these parts. Ask Scheides how many people have been hurt on it.

LOL matt had to about amputate one of his legs after riding that thing at DB! We call it the scooter-o-death! I took the aftermarket exhaust off of it and am thinking about putting the stock carb back on it so it's a little more tame :)
