I am also a graduate of The RITOP School for Mobile Electronics in Watertown, Massachusetts where I obtained my MECP Certification. I have built some very high end audio systems and vehicles over the years but I had always wanted to build something just a little bit different than the norm...enter Project: Armoredhaulin'! Project: Armoredhaulin' was a brain child of mine over 25 years ago. I wanted to build a vehicle that would be radically different than many of the usual types of vehicles that are used for show and competitions. It also needed to be able to realistically carry the excessive amount of weight that a competition sound system adds to a vehicle while also being able to withstand the high DB levels I anticipated the sound system to produce. I also wanted to incorporate the high quality installation techniques and cosmetics that are typically found in high end SQ vehicles but with the same excessive DB levels comparable to that of which are found in some of the worlds loudest SPL competition vehicles which are usually not very visually appealing. Project: Armoredhaulin' is based off of a 1992 GMC Topkick 6500 Armored Truck platform. I acquired the truck in August of 2006 and immediately set my sights on building one of the biggest audio and video demo vehicles, built with only the best products available, Infinity & JBL. System configuration to include: 32 10” Infinity Reference Subwoofers, 168 Infinity Kappa Perfect speakers and 52 Infinity Kappa Amplifiers to fill out the interior audio system. Project: Armoredhaulin' is quickly nearing completion after a labor intensive 15 years of fabrication with a lightly estimated 25,000 Hours investment to date.
