So I have been made aware I am missing a decal from my SONAUTO replica vintage race car. Have a friend in the business to help reproduce it, and don't own the SRC SONAUTO slot car, mine is the PROTO SLOT kit I bought a few years back... There is some sort of crown looking decal on the top edge of both DUNLOP decals on the left and right rear quarter flares. its red and yellow it appears on the slot car. No idea what it really is. I know looking at post race photos of the actual car, its nearly missing. If I could get a nice up close picture of it that would be great. Thanks.

Here it is on the actual car. You can clearly see it leaving the car here, and mostly gone in the second shot.

Mine is the PROTO SLOT Kit, seen here, just a body kit. Not as nice as the SRC version.

Thanks for the reply, I have seen the photos, but the slot car has the complete decal. I just need an up-close shot to have a facsimile produced at my friends shop. Still think its a crown of some sort.

Is that part of the Dunlop sticker or maybe something on it's own?

This is a vintage French DUNLOP decal. Looks close. Colors match. I have to think since they are touching, they must be related.

Looks like a man holding something over his head "Atlas" style. Racing trophy? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

It appears the two sides are actually different. The passenger side looks like the "Dunpy" guy but the drivers side blow-up looks much different.

I think it is same DUNPY on both sides, and that the slot car is in-correct. I believe they have DUNPY, but its not like the one on the actual car. The slot car is incorrect on other decals, and I think what is on the slot car is a close guess.

OK, Finally found it on another car. It is the DUNPY image, this car having a blue and red version. Red on the right forword of the DUNLOP decal.

First guestimate in dimension. Looks a smidge to large to me...what say you?
