I've recently purchased a 1957 Johnson Javelin 35hp and plan to restore her. Upon inspection, I found the rear portion of the cowling base to be cracked in three different areas. Instead of trying to repair the cracks, I was curious as to weather or not I can swap the cowling base, without any modifications, with that from a 1957 Evinrude 35hp outboard. Are they pretty much identical in that year? I am unsure of the model number of the Evinrude, but the model number of my Johnson is RJE-19. Just wandered if someone in the know might be able to shed some light on this. Thanks in advance!!!!............. ALAN
