When I first laid eyes on that beast I saw on Pintrest​
this was the first thing that came to my mind...​

Of course not!!! :bow:​

So I had to get me one of these tanks before I changed my mind and forget like the other 5,532 times​
this year Ive come up with an idea and not do anything about it :bang:​


I'm a beginner that just recently got into collecting boomboxes and my main goal​
is to buy and keep. So everything I do to my boomboxes wether its customizations or upgrading are personal preference​
but most importantly to keep it original as I possibly can. ​



so I brought this from ebay which was over my budget but it was the only​
one available at the time with 7 other watchers :ls-duel: :ebay:​

Oh yeah! Nice socre on the woofers that fit. I used M50 woofers on an M80 because I figured I would never find an aftermarket woofer to fit in there....It pretty tight & those woofs look dope!! I would love to know how those sound when you're done. :-D

I'm still tuned in for the finish. :thumbsup: :drool:

I wonder if Caution could cut some custom mettallic purple decals for the woofer accents...BAM!! :afro:

Caution is the bomb!
