I am drawing up the graphics to make decals for a Sonauto 914-6 replica for the RC car bodies that we are buying. You can see what I have below. Currently, I am in need of a Windows font style which is most similar to the one used to write "SONAUTO". See pic:

(IMG:http://fly.hiwaay.net/~jonlowe/hagen17.jpg)

Specifically, note the way the 'A' looks. Fonts that I have found that have the correct looking 'A', have an incorrect looking 'N'. If you find anything, let me know. In the end, I can fudge it with graphics, but it would be easier to just find the font.

BTW, I plan on inkjet printing these onto clear sticker sheet for application onto the body. Once it is all done, I will make the files available to whoever wants them, or will print sticker sheets (nominal charge) for whoever wants it.

Thanks in advance

Sorry. I searched my fonts and was not able to come up with it. It is still bugging me though, I know that I've seen it before. I'll probably remember it right after someone else comes up with it.

I thought that I would also post a quick pic of some of the vintage car logos that I have. This is just a sample, I've got a lot more. All of the logos that I have are in vector format. This means that they can scale to any size with no degredation of the image. I've provided logos to people that have used them to have full-size graphics created for their race cars. The quality and resolution of the picture that I have attached is well below the actual graphics since I had to convert this to JPEG for display on the net.

What I thought that I would do is collect requests on this thread from anyone that is looking for a particular graphic. Then, after I get enough requests, or exhaust the supply of logos, I'll send one file to everybody so that you can extract what you want from there.
