88 XB2002 Pictures Needed

[mattpro1]

Recently bought a 88 xb02 where some mods were made to dash and switches by ignition. Would love to get some pics out there from someone of their boat. I will be slowly working on restoring it to original. Also how cables exit at transom.Thanks ! My email address is matt.reaves@att.net

Don that is one good looking boat! Do you think Bill would have that 4 switch panel?

 

[F2008]

Thank you. Like you are about to do to yours, I put a lot of work in it.

Not sure, but it would be worth a call. Bill is the nicest guy to talk to and super knowledgeable. I need to replace the switches, you can't read the labels anymore.

Bill doesnt have the panels. I just tried to get one for mine. I ended up making it out of Aluminum.

Bill does have switch covers though. I got those from him to dress it up a bit.

Thanks Bob! Send me a pic of you panel with the covers when you get a chance.

I had it powdercoated to match my bezels and shifter:

Nice job Bob! That looks really good. You should make one for under the key switch. I like that, mines not even broke but I might steal that idea and make one and have it red anodized.



Hmmmm, ..... then I'd need some red gauge bezels, ..... and a then a new console to mount them in. A new home made switch plate could wind up costing me a grand. :banghead

Bob that is sweet looking. Looks Great! Thanks for the Pics.

I hadnt thought about the key switch, but that is a really good idea.
