I have gotten the cowling painted on the 35hp Johnson. I will post pics a little later. I have found one source for decals. does anyone know of decal suppliers?

ebay. It might not be original, but it'll be pretty close.

The best source is Peter McDowell's site: http://www.nymarine.ca/

You're not likely to find many other sources, as the demand simply isn't high enough to warrant much in the way of competition...

Yes that is the source I was speaking of.

That is a good source. I was just fishing around.

Not to change the subject too much but I was reading some old posts and a guy was saying that you can get pressure tank parts from Napa. I found them and you can. I however have not been able to find the foot valve assembly (the pipe with the screen on the bottom) anybody have a lead?

Another well known decal source is http://www.americanoutboard.com/
The foot valve is a dealer item. Or find a used one.

Here is a link to some pics of the 35 in progress. three pics of new paint waiting decals. Once the decals are applied I will give the whole thing a few coats of urethane clear wet sanding between coats. She will shine!
