I would like to possibly have an amp installed in the spare tire well under my hatch carpet in a 88' GT. Not sure what kind of amp or what size, but in general, would this be a good location for it to keep cool enough, etc?
I'm sure you could but I don't think it's a good idea. With it being surrounded by metal theres a better possibility of if something got loose it could arc and fry your amp. a better location would be on the back of your box or on the back of your rear seat

Additionally, being closed up won't give the amp a healthy lifestyle, let alone a long life. Electronics such as amplifiers or any power modulator require ample or even forced ventilation to function and remain at optimal production temperatures.

It's been a long time since I had a Fox, but is there enough room underneath the rear seat bottom? You may encounter the same issue of heat, but you won't have to lose the spare to do it.
I have my whole system under a semi-false floor. The sub sits in the tire well, and I raised the floor a little to accommodate for the amps, epicenter, etc.
