I've always wanted to restore a set of these to use as rear surround speakers in my home theater!
That looks amazing!
I do have one minor (and easily fixable) nitpick, though...
The holes on the side of the junction box were originally designed to hold a pair of (optional) thick wire baskets to prevent to speakers from falling to the ground...
There are holes in the bottom of the junction box base for the speaker wires.
You may also consider tying a simple knot in the speaker wires, inside of the junction box, and the speaker housing for strain relief
Looks Great!
This is incredible! Great work!
I absolutely LOVE the red and silver paint scheme. Beautiful work, as always.
Outstanding! Would of liked to see a list of the Bluetooth parts you used!
Ok....this comment is going to describe my last 15 minutes. Decided to take a long soak in the tub..got a little bored and I decided to look up old drive ins that still use old speakers but couldn't find any. Then I see speaker conversion to blue tooth. You tube'd it and as my grandkids would say watch this video Grandma its strangely satisfying. I was so intrigued...from getting the screws out, to buffing all the dull metal to a glorious shine to the paint job, the snapping of the wire cutters, to the EVERY STINKIN DETAIL. What a GREAT VIDEO....LOVE LOVE LOVE the sounds without the silly music or the senseless rambling of a person talking. The best, most strangely satisfying video I have ever watched and trust me I've watched thousands. Now I gotta get out of this tub!!!
P.S I would LOVE ONE OF THESE. Do you do this for people or just for video?
Omg, modern technology with retro style, beautiful, if it was for sale I would like to buy it😍🤩.
Very nice, remember that from the 70"s
That was awesome that takes me back. Thank you
Put a little bit of solder on the tip, then put the tip on the part you want to solder and wick the solder into the line, takes a lot less time.
Perfeito! Trabalho primoroso.
Parabéns e obrigada pelo vídeo.

Beautiful restoration great job !
Pretty awesome refit and redo! I love it!
Hi Joe beautiful restoration good job well done
Just the video I was looking for. Thank you.
You should've added ports for USB and MP3 units as well as a 1/8" socket to a plug-in walkman (CD, cassette, radio).
Otra gran muestra de su habilidad en la rstauracion y transformacion, excelente resultado obtenido con esta restauración de altavoz de película Vintage Drive-In y conversión a Bluetooth , mis respetos y saludos desde Venezuela.
Joe DIY🤜🤛Venezuela👊💯💯👍
That is neat as heck
Nice outcome Joe😃
Nicely done
Nice and with a purpose again!
100K Nice Buddy. The next 100 will be much faster. I would use these for backyard BBQ's. Beauty.
Thanks!
Awesome job thanks for sharing
Awesome!! Thinking about doing the same thing to mine been searching for a Bluetooth device what make did you use haven't seen that one!
Very cool!
Nice!! This is your best resto yet!! Nice touch with the BT too.
Thanks Paul! Had a lot of fun working on this one! Now back to getting my model A running.
Excellent job!!!
That's pretty cool
Very nice!
Nice job.
I saw on the Bluetooth board, it's powered by 5-27 volts, . What did you use for a power supply?
COOL!
Great job my bro and nice video
Great job 👍
Awesome job!! 👍😁
Thank you!
Awesome Job there's nothing you can't restore
O trust me, there are some projects that never make it on here.
I don't know if you did, but before I sealed the component bodies, I would tie the cords into a knot, put a bead of hot glue at the inside of the cord holes, or a rubber/silicone grommet of some kind, so that the cords wouldn't get pulled out after assembly.
can you tell me where to get the parts so I can convert mine?
Parabéns, irmão! Ótimo trabalho!👍🇧🇷🤩
Putting some rubber grommets in the holes where the wires come out of the speakers would keep the wires from moving around possibly cutting them and they would have gave it a cleaner look, great job though, nice to see you moving into other areas with your restoration skill.
Good idea! Might have to try that on my next one!
@@joe_diy love your work, I was probably the first to ask you to move into other restoration projects, I know toys are your thing but you do them so well it's hard not to ask for more restorations on antiquities, basically old stuff being brought back to life by someone who has the skill to do it.
Nice...👍.
Would like to know where and what circuit board to use and does it have a recharable battery to run this stand alone , thanks , Glenn
Hi
I am doing the same resto that you did......how did you wire up the DC end of the USB cable? Once you mount the Bluetooth receiver board there is no room with the other end plugged in. I see you have wires out so I assume you cut the end buy how and where on the receiver board did you mount it?
Thanks and love your work.
Isn’t a toy car restoration but it’s really cool 👍
Is there another video showing what you used for the Bluetooth radio?
Not fair dude. You are doing this at work while we who know how to do it/retired don't have access to your equipment. ... but nice job.
I would have never drilled that hole, but have looked to integrate it in some other hole/way.
list of electronics please and how to wire everything. i have speakers and want to do the same.
Congratulations on hitting 100k :D
Thanks! Took a while but I'm there!
Where did you get the Bluetooth board?
wow
While restoration is amazing, I didn't liked that you've placed Bluetooth module in base, so you had to drill a hole. Wasn't there enough place in speaker enclosure, to fit it there? Therefore you could use already existing potentiometer hole. Despite this, great job.
All that trouble making volume control knobs .....
They are the same as electric guitar volume knobs , all styles are available and very cheap
What wire stripper are you using?
So. Sweet 🎂. Very. Nice 👍. Work. I. Do. Remember. But. Did. Not. Look. Like. That. Nice 👍. Work. Brother. Lee
Great work!! What brand bluetooth speaker did you use? I'm restoring an old rca radio and I'd like to add a bluetooth speaker to it
To be honest I don't remember. I think it was a 4inch speaker off amazon.
@@joe_diy no prob! there's a bunch of them on Amazon, guess I'll have to sift through reviews! You do great work 👍
BOSS Audio Systems BRS40 50 Watt, 4 Inch , Full Range
Looking good! Does the aluminium casing interfere or inhibit the Bluetooth signal?
If your running a power lead to the blue tooth device .......
Then why not run a speaker lead from a blue tooth party speaker to the original speakers ?
Then you don't need to drill original equipment ....
чего так дрожат руки? автор после НГ снимал?)
