Default Please help ID these vintage decals...

I'm getting ready to button up my Russ Dunmire Hurst Olds and I'm in the process of digging up the original decals from it's race days...Some of these are easy to make out...others are 'Greek' to me. Like the triangular shaped on in front of the big STP...And in the very top corner there is one that says 'think young ' with something beneath it./..The big "B" has me stumped and the ones on the vent window...Do these ring any bells with you fellas? Thanks Jim

The triangle is Federal Mogul, B is Baldwin Filters. Above the FM triangle looks like a Pennzoil event participant sticker (I've seen them repopped for a couple of different events). The others can be read. I think "Think Young" may have been a Pepsi slogan. Neat car.

Cool to hear the car's coming together!.
Pepsi's 'Think Young' campaign was 1961/62 so that decal could be from something else?.

There was a great old decal thread on the HAMB site a few years back that may be worth perusing even if just for fun!.
If you haven't found it yet, the clickable below should take you there but it lands partway through so make sure to view all pages!.

Is it a name? Like &quot;Txxx/Young&quot;? Minus the slash, of course.

Glad to see the old girl coming back together. Hated what happened to her.
