We had been looking for a Barracuda SS for a while, I found this boat in Missouri in the weeds. Dug it out and started on it. The motor had been changed to the L series. Had not ran in years. So far I have got it running and fixed most of the gauges. Found trailer out in Nebraska. Started rubbing it out and came out better than expected. I really like the old style gauges (clock, speedo, tach., barometer). It took some getting used to the two stick. I skied behind it this spring for first time, pulls out as good or better than my newer boat with a 350 in it. Plan is for upolstery and new gell coat.
