Default 2004 xB: UM/UF Lunchbox FS/FT

Hey guys, well its time to hand the torch over for someone else to enjoy / part out / rebuild this legendary xB. I am working on getting a link to more photos and should be up shortly..

Now before you go out and start writing those bad checks here is an important fact everyone needs to know. This vehicle was not designed or built to be used as an everyday driver. Many of its safety components were removed for the sake of being custom and the interior enclosure is not secured to the vehicle in a way that would make it practical to drive everyday. With that said here is a list of what makes up this incredible xB.


Theme;

There is a meaning to all this madness. This vehicle is dedicated to my family. All members of my family have graduated from either the University of Miami or the University of Florida and without their support this build would have never been possible. As a tribute to them I have removable football wrapped panels that sit under the dash, each represents one school and has the “autographs” of the members of my family that has gone to each corresponding school. Unfortunately both my grandparents died before I could complete the vehicle but fortunately signed the panels before their passing, which made its completion even more special to my entire family. So enjoy my true labor of love.

Wheels:
20” Mod Concept Arsenals (custom offset to tuck with the suspension)

Audio:
Alpine TME-M770s Touch Screen Controller
Alpine DVA-5210 Dvd Player
Alpine PXA H701 Multimedia Manager
Alpine VPA-B222 Vehicle Hub Pro
Concept Video 10” Raw screen
DLS Iridium Series Tweeters
DLS Iridium Series Mid Range Separates
DLS Iridium Series 8.2” Separates
DLS Iridium Series 12” Subwoofers
DLS A7 Amplifiers (2)
Dynamat sound deadening throughout vehicle
Tsunami 5 Farad Capacitor
Tsunami Digital Fuse Boxes (
Tsunami Cables, RCA’s, Fuses & Fiber Optics

Engine:
Painted Valve Cover
Stainless steel engine covers
Tsunami power distribution blocks and fuses

Exterior:
The vehicle is custom painted to represent the Canes on one side and the Gators on the other.
Shaved Door Handles
Kenstyle Body Kit
Kenstyle Rear Wing
Ichiko Headlights
Street Scene speed grilles
Painted Tail Lights
Clear moon roof with Football Field Etching

Interior:
Custom built one off design fiberglass interior. This interior has over 1600 hours of labor involved in it. It is comprised of;
-Custom Dashboard – houses all the speakers for the stereo system except the subs
-One of a kind digital gauge made by Dakota digital. Oval in design to replicate a football, the unique characteristic is the gauge that monitors the Beer temp.
-Custom center console which houses a 10” screen and is the control center of the truck
-Shaved and smoothed lower dash
-Shaved and smooth steering column
-Removed the air bag and replaced it with a more practical 6” touch screen.
-Seats and headliner are wrapped in authentic football leather.
-Floor has authentic Astro turf for carpeting
-Custom center console that connects the dashboard to the rear enclosure.
-Rear enclosure it was houses the sub woofers, amplifiers and all the fuse blocks including the capacitors.
-Custom made door panels that have been smoothed flat and shaved of all handles and switches
-The back of the vehicle houses the beverage serving system that can serve any pourable beverage as cold as ice. (This was removed but very simple to install)
-Everything inside the vehicle is painted to match the overall theme of the truck

Suspension:
Currently sitting in Tein Springs

In all honesty I would rather trade the vehicle than sell it to someone.

I am looking for the following new projects;
-Pre 1967 VW Beetle
-Pre 1967 VW Type II Crew Cab Bus

Anyone with either of those items will get first dibs at the vehicle otherwise if I have to sell it I would want $9000.00 or best offer. There is over 20,000 invested in this vehicle but I am letting it go at this price because I am aware of the challenges with it not being an everyday driver.

I hope someone else enjoys this as much as I did.

Please be aware that I am in no rush to sell this vehicle and I have alternate plans for modification in the event I cannot sell it, so think twice before trying to low ball for this amazing vehicle.

Thank you
