afx Posted January 23, 2022 Posted January 23, 2022 I need some help finding the Kelsey-Hayes logo that is right behind the front wheel. I've searched and have not been able to find this image. Not sure if it is for Kelsey-Hayes wheels or Kesey-Hayes brakes.
deuces wild Posted January 23, 2022 Posted January 23, 2022 Here you go... I found this on the Corvette Forum....

It’s an odd duck for sure. All the decals I have seen online are the same with the logo whereas this one looks to be text with a brake caliper.
peteski Posted January 23, 2022 Posted January 23, 2022 (edited) That photo is very small. Which part of the "stuff" behind the wheel opening is the logo you are looking for? Or the entire cluster of object is the logo? I blown it up and this is the best I can come up with. You can barely make out the words. Not sure what the other graphics are. The actual K-H logo might just be the lettering and the round object. The other objects might be another logo Maybe instead of searching for the logo look for other photos of the race cars from that time period for higher resolution of the logo? That foto is from 1966 Sebring competition. When searching for logo, this is the one that pops up most often: Edited January 23, 2022 by peteski

Something similar to this but with a simpler, dark caliper at the top. Edited January 23, 2022 by Can-Con

We still don't know whether the other graphics (on the left) belong to the K-H logo, or are for another sponsor.
afx Posted January 24, 2022 Author Posted January 24, 2022 (edited) The logo to the left is Fram, got that one covered. Just trying to find the Kelsey-Hayes Edited January 24, 2022 by afx
afx Posted January 25, 2022 Author Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) The Comstock Racing's Mustangs appear to have the same decal but still can't make it out clearly. Edited January 25, 2022 by afx 1

camaro69 Posted January 25, 2022 Posted January 25, 2022 Hey guys, thank you all for your help. I think this is a disc brake with caliper nearly on top. I will go with this and try to replicate it. 7 hours ago, afx said: The Comstock Racing's Mustangs appear to have the same decal but still can't make it out clearly. The first pic showes it well enough for me. Rico 1
camaro69 Posted January 25, 2022 Posted January 25, 2022 Here´s what I made out of this. Sure not 100% accurate but I like it as it is especially because it´s so small on this car in 1/25...? 2
