Can Anyone identify this Race emblem
« on: November 16, 2020, 07:51:34 PM »
This is the original ashtray from my 1965 GT Fastback.  I bought the car back in 1984 near Winston Salem, North Carolina.  The cars DSO was Charlotte so was probably in the area its whole life.

Can anyone identify the decal shown in the photo? Was it maybe from a local race track?  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

IMC = Industro-Motive Corporation (IMC) was acquired by Testors in 1970

Model company. Made great detailed models. Testors did a re-release of most of them.

I believe I have every one of the GT40 older kits in the eBay auctions and doubles most of them also.

I still need the clear body one. Any leads? I've got the IMCs which I won't build and at least 2 of each of the Testors that I will build - my retirement is going to be very busy.

PS how are the Fujimi kits?
