Does anyone know where I might find new decals for my '78 Johnson, '73 Evinrude, and '58 Johnson?<br /><br />Thanks

Re: Motor Decals

Hi sgd! This fellow made me some for my 4hp Evinrude and I an very happy with the results. You will need to take some pictures of your old ones and give him the sizes. The price was right and the work was exceptional!<br /><br />Here's a pic of my motor with the new decals:<br /><br /> http://www.hunt101.com/img/152373.JPG <br /><br />Here's his email:<br /><br />js1802@charter.net

Any good sign shop in your area will be able to recreate your engine decals.<br /><br />It's just better, IMHO, to do business face to face. :)

No, he's from the USA. I just sent him some digital pics of my labels and gave him the sizes. He sent me what he could do and for how much. You then approve the work you will see from him in a email or ask for some changes to be done. When the labels are ready to ship he will ask for payment via Paypal (or money order) and about a week later I had my labels with the instructions on how to put them on.<br /><br />I was recommended to him by another fellow on iboats and is less expensive than every other label maker I looked into.

Here's a few reasons I think it better... <br /><br />1) It's faster.<br /><br />2) You have a better chance of getting what you want the first time.<br /><br />3) If there's a problem you can get it taken care of with less hassle.<br /><br />4) Keeps your money in the community.<br /><br />5) Your favorite corbra 3.0. You can shake his hand. :D

Re: Motor Decals

The decals have been painted over on my '78 55hp Johny, so a pic would be hard to get, does anyone have pictures of this vintage or know where I could look some up?
