2 Year Cig Project comes to an end!
Well as some may know i've been working on a buddy's boat for almost two years now! 
I tore the boat up and stripped it for a face lift....then it was supposed to get painted.......so i waited...and waited......and waited......well come this past september, it finally happened! Now they are in a hurry cause they are leaving for Miami FL this thrusday!!! SO... Allday Sat and Sunday i rig the upper and lower dash, steering, indicators, GPS.....all new wiring, new blade style fuses, 2 12v power supplys (one on each side) And any other general things that pop up along the way! All thats left to do now for them is to install the bolsters and back seat.....and slap some fenders on the trailer!
If anmyone happens to see this 28SS down in the Miami area around X-mas to New Years tell them hi
And here are the pics of the project:
Boat is stripped and the sanding has begun

this is the stock gauge pod before the custom plates were made for it by Team Marine....I made a template for them to follow off of in cardboard and shipped out the entire box to them just to make sure it all fit!
