Im fixing up a 74 Firebird..
right now i got a..
Pioneer DEH-P4600MP MP3 Deck
2 6x9 Pioneers.. 240watts max
2 3/4" Keenwood Tweeters.. 60watts
Rockford Folgate Power 500bd Amp
2 10" Rockford Subs.. not sure the details on these..
This is the first system im gonna make myself so i dont know much.. hoping for some good suggestions...
Im planning on keeping the subs, amp, & headunit.. but i havent really had a chance to listen to the 6x9's or the tweeters so im not sure about the quality...
im looking to maybe add 2 more 6x9's or 4 total if those pioneers arent that great... and maybe some new tweeters too...
any feedback is appreciated....

ok here's my thoughts:
keep the had unit
keep the subs
put the 6x9s in the back shelf if you want to use those.
dump the tweeters and get a decent set of 6.5" separates for the front and mount them in either fiberglass kickpods, or in the doors if you don't mind cutting into the sheet metal of the F body doors.
the pods require no cutting, but take more work to make them.
use the amp and put the subs in the trunk in a ported enclosure, tuned to about 35Hz.
consider getting a 4 channel amp for the interior speakers and if that Pioneer unit only has 1 set of pre-outs instead of 3 sets, use an electronic crossover like the Coustic XM-3 to split the signal up for 6 channels of amplification with crossover control.
that'd be a very nice, simple system.
