Default Up-Dating a 420 Baja

We just finished an up-dating project on a 96 420 Baja. The "before" picture was taken after the radar arch and big azz windsheild was taken off, so even it was an improvement. Give me your opinions!!

Here is a shot of the top and a before & after of the dash. We changed out the gauges, & added bezels, throttles, steering wheel, compass, and new GPS. Both of the pictures of the dash were without the screws in, but you get the idea. Thanks to Don at TPM for supplying all the parts. He is great to work with and I would recommend him to anyone needing parts for their boat!!

WOW!!! The colors make the boat look shorter/closer to the water thus giving it a longer sleeker look.
It looks really good !! The dash looks great too but I wouldn't want triples with todays fuel cost going up out of sight.

Looking good Dave. Dallas says I need a new boat, or one that runs anyway.

Saw this boat on the 200, it looked sweet. Nicest 420 I've seen.

I like the way the deck looks but I don't know if I really care for the hull. Sorry just not my colors , but it is a huge improvement over stock.

David,

Another fine job my friend. She looks brand new.

I absolutely love the 420's and would love to have one of those that was at the Travis run.

Nice boat, Beautiful Work

Dock

P.S. Your friend "Never Enuff" has the 420 stepped hull poster hanging in his garage! I tried to steal it but he was watching me too close!
