Are you scratchbuilding such a car?  The Walthers version seems to come already lettered.

A lot of those 70' cryo cars got a few feet chopped off the one end and converted to mechanical refridgeration.  I know that some of the JRSX ones received the conversions, but don't know if they ever got the SIMPLOT on the side.  Could be a project like that.  I've got a few Walthers cars waiting for just that conversion.

The lettering is a simple-looking font, so you might be able to make a stencil of it, then spray or airbrush right onto the car, using a similar shade of brown.

Thanks!!
