Hey guys, I have a tricky one for you.

A mate, who works for Biante, has contacted me with the following request:

Hey quasi

Got a work related question for you.

Can you remember or actually have a version of the 1981 Bank of queensland logo that adorned the driver and passenger side door of Dicks XD falcon in its ATCC campaign? The logo sits above the racing number.

Here is a link to a thread I have started to try and find it but we are stuffed on the green section.


I have a full page advertisement in the 1981 'Australian Motor Racing Yearbook' congratulating Dick on winning the ATCC, and that is one of the few pics NOT from Bathurst. However, even scanning the ad at high res, I can't quite make out what it says exactly.

Failing that, I tried to take a digital pic of it, but same problem. About my only hope now is to pop into DJR and see what shots he has in the museum of the car in ATCC trim, not James Hardie 1000.

I've even run multiple online searches for that logo, but to no avail. Does anyone have any descent pics of this part of the car at all.

Cheers

It's hard to see but gives an idea of the size.

I can not find one that is clear enough to guess. I put the call out on an other forum for you

Quasi, why don't you contact BOQ directly? They would have plenty of historical images, documents, letterheads, etc. I'm sure they would assist.

Hi Quasi,

I will have a scroll through the many books that I have from the glory days, stay posted.

Failing that, try calling Mitch at the race shop, that guy is a wealth of info, if he doesn't know im sure he will try and find out for you.

Cheers guys. Yeah the size isn't an issue, just clearly seeing the logo is (I think for replication purposes). I scanned in the advert I mentioned at a high resolution, but still couldn't make out the green section of it.
