IMSA GTO Camaros

I'm looking for a close up picture of the Skoal Bandit as raced primarily by Jack Baldwin in the late 1980's.

https://www.racingsportscars.com/cha...ess%20861.html

There are a few pictures at the bottom of the page. There is a Busch logo on the car and I can't find that logo anywhere. You can see it in this drawing on the rocker just below the number 3.

Does anyone by chance have a close up of that sponsor logo?

Thanks,
Steve

Re: IMSA GTO Camaros

I found this shot from a Gran Turismo skin:

I messaged the creator on Reddit, to see if he still has any of his reference for making the skin. He said at the time he just googled "imsa skoal bandit camaro" and found references, but not much really shows up that's high detail.

Update: It's Busch Shine Products. Here's the logo on a bottle of their aluminum polish:

Wow! Thank you so much!!!!!!!

I thought it was some Busch beer logo. Never would have thought it was a cleaner/polish/wax.

Likewise! It doesn't help that it looks like both of them sponsored the same car, maybe even on the same years.

Re: IMSA GTO Camaros

Another decal/logo question on the Skoal Bandit. Clearly this car saw several different variations of the Skoal Bandit scheme. Here it is wearing number 28. This is the best picture I can find showing the side of the car. I've been trying to decipher the decals just above and just below the Flowmaster decal. Also the Kenwood logo has a symbol below the text, but you can't make it out. Anyone have any better shots of this version?
