so i decided to work on a trunk setup because i felt like i was being left behind and not doing anything. This is what i have so far.

i cut up some left over plywood that i have had sitting in my garage to make a box for my tank and compressors.






then i mocked everything in place and layed it in my trunk to make sure my measurements are



took everything back off then started laying down the inner hardwood lining



and layed everything back in place.



i didnt have alot of time to finish the rest so i had to go ahead and connect it all so i can get to work



Im still in the process of making the hardwood floor, copper hard lines, and a hardwood face plate for the box. so i still have much ways to go but ill work on what i can throughout the week. but i must say this is $100 well spent

more updates i did the center floor board with what little time i had yesterday.



i tried to get better lighting pictures. no flash and sunlight was not beaming in the trunk.



the camera doesn't do it any justice it looks a lot better in person.
