Quick update just wondering if anyone knows Joe from JG PRODUCTS http://jgproducts.net/

I ordered my decals from him over 2 weeks ago and now I cant get tracking or he does not reply to my emails or phone calls. I paid thru pay pal and just opened a claim today. I found him on the net and he said he shipped them on the 3rd of june.

Looks like ima need a new decal guy anyone know somebody who could make me the wrangler car decals?

On a positive note my plates will be done on Monday :D

Thanks Dom

i have dealt with joe with no problems. Cool guy. I dont think he is doing something funny. Something must have happened or he is on vacation.

Mike ,
I have to agree with you. A while back I ordered a number of 1/4 scale decal sheets from Joe and they arrived in Sydney within a week. I couldn't complain about that service!

I got my plates today !!!! :D :D I also had the upper and bottom brace plates made here are pics I will polish them out this week sometime. Now just waiting on the rear shock mount, Decals Joe said if I canceled the paypal claim he would send me another set out today with tracking becuase the last set was sent to the wrong address (by accident) and no tracking so I told him I am gonna trust him and I canceled the claim.

Anyway if anyone is interested in these plates let me know I will have em on ebay soon

Well my outboard on my boat popped so gonna have to get it rebuilt and its gonna cost me about $6000.00 so I am going to finish this car off in the next couple of days and its gonna be up for sale it turned out really nice will come with the original GD2 motor and the used wheels and tires as well as all the extra parts. you will need RX and TX .

Hate to sell it but need my boat fixed so the price is $1500.00 OBO I am short 1500.00 on my motor rebuild so the closer I can get to it the better . Go back thru the build I put alot of time and effort into this car, once done I will post pics in the for sale section . Hopeing to have it completed by this week end. If no takers by then will go on Ebay Thanks for all the help and info on this build but being married with 2 kids gotta wiegh my priorities and the boat take it.
