The next time I saw a decal like that was on Marlin Bogner's blue 64 Plymouth SS/DA Maxwedge car at Indy sometime in the 90's. Hope the decal picture I attached is legible. Thanks for looking, Craig.

Phil won class that year, I helped him some during his teardown for class, of course he did all the important stuff. This was a very nice car that was sold a few years later to a collector. I last saw Phil at the 2016 Montgomery points race. He was there as a spectator and now lives in Mobil and plays with his sail boat. One of the nicest guys you would ever want to meet.

Great pics. I've never seen that shipping decal. Very cool.
