1970 Mustang Infinitybox Wiring

Here’s another great example of a customer car wired with our Infinitybox system.  Paul L. wired this beautiful 1970 Mustang with our 20-Circuit KitinLINK and inMOTION.  Paul just sent us pictures showing off the finished car and how he installed his Infinitybox system.

This picture shows the center console of his car.  You can see the MASTERCELL and the inMOTION cell located in the frame of the center console.  The MASTERCELL connects to all of his switches.  The inMOTION cell controls the motion of his power windows and door locks.

You can see in this picture how seamlessly these cells disappear into the interior of the car.

His engine looks great under the hood.

He relocated the battery to the trunk of the car.  He used this space for his ignition system and his front POWERCELL.  This POWERCELL location is great because it makes most of his front wiring short and easy to install.  His headlights, high-beams, turn signals, running lights, starter solenoid, ignition power, cooling fan and horn are all powered from this location.

His rear POWERCELL is located in the trunk.  This makes wiring his brake lights, turn signals, rear running lights, fuel pump, trunk popper and other accessories very easy.

We did some simple customization of this code to get him extra features.  He’s controlling his door locks from outputs on inMOTION.  His doors lock and unlock when he enables and disables security from his inLINK key fob.  He is also using a POWERCELL output to operate a solenoid to pop his trunk.  We programmed a button on his inLINK key fob to pop the trunk.  He also wanted an output on his rear POWERCELL to turn on with ignition.  These are all very simple changes to our system.

The finished wiring is simple and elegant.  We thank Paul L. for sending these pictures.  We’re proud to be a part of his project.

1966 Mustang wired with the Infinitybox System

Our customers are technology guys. They like to tinker, create and modify things. They aren’t content with things that are basic. We have been helping our customers build beyond basic cars for 10 years now. This one is no exception. Geoff Beale built a beautiful 1966 Mustang hardtop that was featured in the most recent issue of Mustang Monthly. Geoff did something very unique with the electrical system in this car. He wired it with our Infinitybox system, then paired our system with a Crestron control system. The end product is an awesome Mustang with complete control through switches and an iPhone. Read below for more details.

Geoff runs Throwback Customs. In addition to that, he is highly involved with Crestron, which builds electronic control systems for conference rooms, board rooms and schools. Geoff paired his Crestron expertise with our Infinitybox system to get a powerful electrical system for his Mustang.

The car was in pretty rough shape when Geoff purchased it. Over several years, he has shaped, sculpted and created his ideal version of the 1966 Mustang. He installed a supercharged 5 liter Coyote Mustang engine on an Art Morrison MAXG chassis. From there, he has added subtle touches to the car that you won’t see anywhere else.

When it came to wiring the car, he came to Infinitybox to get our 20-Circuit Kit to be used as the main body controller. This kit is powering his lighting, ignition, starter, cooling fans, fuel pump, horn and other accessories. He added an extra POWERCELL to get 10 more outputs for the added features that he has in the car. He then added our inMOTION Motor Controller to control his power windows and locks. Lastly, he added our inVIRONMENT module to control his Gen-IV unit from Vintage Air.

Because of his experience with Crestron, he wanted to use their system as the touch screen and iPhone controller for the car. Our MASTERCELL inputs are all ground switched so Geoff was able to easily connect his inputs to the outputs of his Crestron controller. All the electrical features in the car can be controlled through the Crestron touch screen or the Crestron iPhone app. Geoff has a YouTube channel full of videos showing off the integration of the two systems. Here’s an example video of him showing off the electrical features in the car.

Jesse Kiser of Mustang Monthly shot a bunch a great pictures of the car. He also wrote a great article covering the history of the car, Geoff’s build and the unique features of this Mustang. You can read the entire article by clicking this link.

Congratulations to Geoff for finishing a spectacular build. We’re proud to be a part of this car.

Split Second Corvette built by Eddie's Rod & Custom

Split Second Corvette

There were a lot of great Corvettes at this year’s Autorama in Detroit.  A good number of them were wired with our Infinitybox system.  The Split Second built by Eddie’s Rod & Custom is a great example.  They built a stunning 1963 Corvette into a powerful Pro-Touring Machine.

The team at Eddie’s took an unconventional approach to the engine for this car.  This highly modified C2 is powered by a well-dressed 327 small-block.  This unique touch hearkens back to the car’s past but gives it the power needed to perform.

They wired the car with our 20-Circuit KitinMOTIONinLINK and inRESERVE.  They added inVIRONMENT for control of their Vintage Air.  An iPad mounted in their dash is the command center for the car.  All of the features are controlled from the iPad using our inTOUCH NET.

Corvette Online did a great article on this car and three of the other Corvettes that stood out at the 2016 Autorama in Detroit.

Congratulations to Eddie and his team for building a great car.  We’re proud to be a part of it.
