Well that is definetly a fine set up you got there those W6's are really gonna knock yer socks off especially with that 1000/1. So what you need to know how to hook up the speakers? You need to at least get you a 4 gauge power set up. Now how many ohms do you wanna drop it down too? I'd keep it high otherwise you'll get it a little to loud where you cant even turn it up.

about 2500 bucks in the amps ALONE !

hard to believe the person who owned this
would just let it go/forget about it...

did anyone make an effort to contact the owner ?

yup registered letters sent out once a week.a phone call trying to locate the owner every few days and nobody knew where he went or what he wanted to do with the car.so going through the proper legal channels we obtained the title and rights to sell/salvage the vehicle.
