I see the style that Joe posted and it makes me think "ZORRO"! Some Zee dealie tearing or slashing through the side of the truck (in a circle of course)!

hopefully we can work together to come up with 3 or 4 designs to show to Howie, I guess he should get to pick. I think we can even pick 2 designs to do... there is 2 sides to the truck. I like the design Joe but we need to think team job too, maybe we could incorporate some gilding or airbrush work, maybe do a special technique to use on the letters or the circle... how about marble, granite or chrome bevels. just to give some background, if you have never met Howie he is a melo laid back dude who hasn't cut off his hair yet, a faithful fan of Jerry Garcia. He is a small distributor who serves his customers amazingly well with 2 trucks delivering up deep into Maine, N.H. and all of Massachusetts. I don't know how he does it but he sells vinyl by the yard, signfoam by the sq. foot, still has quills and seems to have what ever you need all the time How about a slogan "Here comes Howie" or "have no fear, howie's on the way"

New Bury Port? Rob it's Newburyport Although I really like the 3rd one you posted, Howie will not pick one without that "z" in the circle design, stick to the plan man!
