No, but having looked at the inside of the truck carefully the only place to put them would be under the seat! Or remove the fuel tank from behind the seat and put them there.

Only requires 3 inches to install! These would fit nicely in doors of a 66!

I made a box that sits on the transmission hump, it has two speakers, a head unit and a console to put junk. It's padded and covered w/ black vinyl. there is even access for the heat / def. lever. I also have two speakers under the seat it sounds fine for my taste, even going down the highway. i'll try to get some pics for you

I found the Pioneer TS-SW2541D speakers for a little over $100 on evilbay if anyone is interested. Kind of fun to point out stuff like that at times.

I made a set of those panels for my '63 about ten years ago. I've got a pair of 150 watt 6X9's in them. If you go that route you'll want to silicone or glue a sheet of visqueen above the speaker to keep the rain water off of your 6X9's..

Thanks for the info twin66. I'll check into one of kits for now but I think that when I get around to doing the interior I am going to weld the hole up and put the stereo either in the glovebox or make some kind of center consel.

You can mount under the dash. They make a kit for it you can get it at any stereo place. you can put it in the glove box or on the floor since most of the current stereo s have remotes. The speaker can be put in th back of the seats or in the courner of the cab, or even under the seat. I removed the kick panel vents out and placed my speakers in there with my custom sound system. It sounded great.
