Can I post the photos on another forum to see if anyone there knows?

My suspicion is a camshaft company but I am not quite certain.

I Know Les really well. I bought the car from him back 12 months ago. These Photos are from his collection of photos of the car at Bathurst in 1969. He can't remember what the sticker was about.......

I have asked the question on the Autosport/Atlas Nostalgia Forum
I should get an answer, they are usually good at this sort of thing. :D

There is a couple of photos of the car at Autopics. He may have more that have not been scanned yet.

I could be mistaken but it looks like an old "Iskenderian Camshaft" sticker I saw a while ago . . . . havent found any images as yet.

I'm trying to twist his arm Watto, I don't think he will though. Hmm I might have to drive it sown myself, you think he'd notice a white van instead of a blue Cooper s?

I have just scanned these ones of the Isky logo.

I have been through my RCN magazines from 1968 to 1970 and checked other logos from the era. I was thinking Watson Cams but it is not them and it is not Waggott either.

I don't know if it is the winner yet. I have not seen a sticker with all the same details yet.

Another question is why would it have an Isky sticker? It was a production car race and the cam and lifters would have been stock.
