With Randy having previously worked on an Acura Legend which he competed and won numerous IASCA titles in the 90's, it was the decision after a long conversation with Chad at the 1999 consumer electronics show that it was time to build yet another dominating ride. The first car he would send Chad was not in the best of shape so the decision was to sale it, which they did and purchased a new one that, was in much better shape. With Chad being an installer at Soundworks it would be easy to rework any of the wiring stereo and video needs they would deem necessary for this project. With all intentions of this ride being built for stereo, the ensure us that much more engine and exterior modifications will come later on this year. Starting with the engine, all factory wiring in the engine bay was rerouted to where it was pretty much invisible.

This was done to highlight all of the 12-volt stereo components and to clean up the engine bay. Next a 175-amp Wrangler alternator with custom machined brackets would be mounted. The alternator was added due to the hi-current demands from the outrageous system.   With the show circuit in mind, some custom built displays for under the hood would be laser cut out of Plexiglas to cover the power wire and distribution blocks. Finishing up under the hood would be a custom stitched black and red dynamate hood liner along with a Tenzo cold air intake.
