Materials:

Steps:
Remove
the hinges from the lid of the trunk. Use a damp rag to
clean the base inside and out.

a base for the bottles and glassware - Remove the
outside edge piece on one of the bottom sides of the rack
with a hammer and flat-edged screwdriver (figure A).
Or just put in a small wooden box and filp it up-side
down
Nail
along the outside edge of the rack to attach it inside
the trunk.
Make
a stemware rack - by attaching rabbeted molding to
the bottom of one of the shelves. Two pieces of L-shaped
molding installed facing each other form a two-sided ledge
that will hold a row of stemware in place (figure B).
Measure the diameter of the base of a piece of stemware,
and attach the two pieces of molding to accommodate the
stem and base of the glass.

Great
"conversation piece" or just to hide your bar
from drink smuggling vultures
