  • Arena Barracuda Update

    For the last three days my good friend Dan Kulpa from Fort Wayne Indiana has been here at the house rewiring the entire boat including the entire dash , new fuse block and the works. Its better that when it was built. Dan is a real expert when it come to this type of thing and is the man who did all the wiring on all of Bruce Bones beautiful boats. I pulled the controls and dash over a year ago when the restoration was started and its great to finally see it back together, Steering wheel and front seat was installed also today, and will be running the new stainless braided fuel line and installing the electric fuel pump by Monday. Its getting more exciting every day!

    Enjoy the Pics!

        Nice restoration

        Is that the original damascene (swirl polish) on the instrument panel? Look great!

            Yes its the original aluminum dash plate. When I had it out of the boat with all the instruments out of the pannel I hit it with compound and buffed on on my wheel, came out super.

              John, When i first looked at the dash pictures, i kept having to tell myself it was a boat dash and not a car one. That has to be the nicest boat dash i have ever seen ! Bar none ! Super nice. Chuck

                Yes,

                I agree, its simple clean lines really add to the over all good looks of the boat. Me too, I likes it a ton!
