Default Building subwoofer boxes, book?

Okay... there are several books on Amazon about build subwoofer boxes... and I have Harris Box to get the correct/optimal volume for any sub based off of the T&S specs... but now, I need some direction.

What are some good books about building subwoofer boxes? I want a box to fit nicely into my new car (when I get it) and will be building a box for the car in my free time. Suggestion on good "How To" type books that goes into a good depth about building a quality box and/or fiberglassing would be awesome to read now and kind of try out and stuff.

Suggestions?

The granddaddy of all speaker box building books is the "Loudspeaker Design Cookbook". But that is more theory than fabrication.

Here is the best link online I have found about a straightforward box build...
http://www.sounddomain.com/ride/261051

Here is a page with some links to various DIYs that might have some good info (use the links at the bottom left that start Audio DIY)...
http://www.diysubwoofers.org/

I really need to improve my Sub FAQ. So maybe we can get some more info in here and I could add it to the FAQ.

I had a copy of the Loud Speaker Cookbook... I don't know where it went or if I borrowed it... but it was a damn good book about building boxes for all kinds of speakers...

And of course... thanks for the good FAQ thread, offset.... it has tons of good info nicely compiled into it... it has given me a few nights of reading at work.
