Here is a link to my blog and my finished Johnson Javelin RJE-18E. I got the chrome back this week and was very happy with the outcome.

Thanks to those who helped get both my RD's back to life!

That was you! I had some choice words for you when you outbid me on those front covers.

Nice job on the Javelin. Glad to see you got it completed.

Whatever you had to say was drowned out by my wife's words still hanging in the air over our house from my bringing the motors home in the first place.

Both covers were beat up pretty badly. I kept "the best of the two", and sold the other one. The chrome shop did a lot of work to bring it back.

I just hope this motor will run as well as the sister RD-18 I've been running the last few weeks!

Take care!
