I believe it is somewhere in the neighborhood of $700! Well worth is, as he "Learned" from the Master Joe of J & J fame himself! Quality is there as well, same as Joe's in the past!

Re: Gettin Old I Guess??
Joe passed a few years ago. lived in Indy. maybe Evensville, The company does not exist anymore, all the molds were sold Matchstick learned how to from Joe, My guess matchstick didn't get all the molds. if any at all.?? I remember reading someone sent him a j & j visor so he could make a mold it may have been a econo but i'm not sure. I guess it's part of getting old.

Re: Gettin Old I Guess??
Dix is correct! J & J is no longer around, Matchstick got instructions from Joe on how things were done to achieve the results which were what Joe & J & J were known for! Quality fiberglass products for Vans. And, MS did not get any molds, as they were not around any longer? What he is producing are custom fabricated by himself, MS that is.
