Also what is the decal behind or in place of the 427 fender emblems?
Thanks for yours or somebody's help,

Tony,
The decal in place of the 427 emblem in the video is a small Champion. Below that is the vent, and then there is a standard size Firestone. All the pics I have seen only have the Skip Scott written on the passenger side, or nothing. I've never seen any pics with Thompsons name on the driver side. Anybody have anything showing that?
I've also seen STP, Shell, Fram, VHT, 76, and the silver/red foil Champion stickers on the car at various races in Essex Wire livery. Shelby American Racing History by Friedman has a handful of pics of the car at various races. The stickers changes from race to race.
The nose also had either an Essex Wire logo, some other ??? logo, or was blank. The ??? logo looks like some kind of reclining cartoon charactor to me, but does anybody have any idea what it is?
Hope that helps.
Steve
