I don't think I have anything that you don't already have. The ones I have appear to have the "Cable Car" logo on the rear deck.

Thanks for the quick reply.

In all the pics I have of the car the decklid graphics are there.
Just none are real clear to truly determine the size and colors .

Like is the C A B L E lettering shaded like the doors?

Is it same colors ?

I've blown this photo up as best I can.

I have posted one other I have that gives a rear deck view but hard to tell much.

Also black and white so not much help on the colors.

Beautiful craftmanship in your models
A fitting tribute to one of the early "teams". Don & Joann. Always a clean and well prepped operation.

Don up against Ronnie in the SS/E GTX

Ronnie gets out first. But can he hold off the top end charge of the Dons Hemi

ps, This is about as much effort I put into a diorama per say

Thanks, I have that issue I believe. As I used several old magazines for reference. I used both a Car Craft April 1967 and SS/DI Dec 1967 magazines for research to duplicate the car from early in its life span Seems the car was at the NHRA Winternationals in the spring of 1967 and the car had a stock flat hood. THATS the version I was trying to replicate.

And , Sorry but this is about as much effort I put into so called Dioramas and thus is my only one. If you want to call it that.
Its more of the display case for these 2 cars specifically.
