Help identifying lettering

[Ray Sametz]

Need some help from the scale guru's. I have the radio station logo, Penzoil logo on cowl, Burien's Pit Stop on top of sponsons. On the side of the canoes behind their transom, I believe is ?????? volkswagon. I need that missing lettering and what comes after. Also do you think theirs a drivers signature behind the windshield. Here's the pic I have. Thanks Ray

I seen one picture that Bellevue Volkswagon sponsored that boat. I have two pictures of the Pit Stop but you can't see that part of the hull on either.

it looks like a vw dealer's name, can't make it out in the pic. i work at a dealer that sells vw's, i'll see if bellevue is still a dealer. the lettering i can see looks like 'vue' on the end........

Glenn, Mopar, Joe thanks for the help. Glenn, I have your pics you sent me allmost a year ago, which got the ball rolling. Joe, just sent me a pic that shows it's Chaplins (in script) Bellevue Volkswagon (in print) and Mopar, I think gave me the clue to the last part. Went back to web site and the dealership is a stones throw from Interstate 90. So I'm thinking the last part is " on I-90". It's crazy, having colors, basic layout, print and logos and nobody builds this hull in glass. Well back to Roger's plans. Thanks again

that's pretty much the same pic in ray's first post :huh: . doesn't show any more than his........

I know.....I had to look a couple of times to make sure it wasn't the exact same picture but the background was different. I just posted it because it's larger (8x10) and might be of use for the hull overall or a concourse photo.

Glenn, I have the one from you on the trailer and side by side with the Circus. I'll snatch the e-bay shot for concourse pic. I think this is the same guy I got race programs from for 94 and 95. Thanks again, Ray B) B)
