got a pic of the whole side of the cab (even painted over)?  Shape can help narrow down manufacturer.

Edit, probably doesnt help but that looks like a Citroen emblem on the car.

If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

I keep thinking I know this one, but I can't seem to find the time to sit down and look up my guesses.
Maybe it will be slow at work this afternoon.  :angel:

This is driving me nuts.

Exactly what part of the cab is that pictured?

EDIT: The artwork had me thinking mid to late 80's.  Looking at Citroen's online, the style is closest to 1990.
So even if the car is a generic knock-off, the game is probably within a couple years of 1990.
Browsing through racing games on my spreadsheet and KLOV from 1980-1994 got no results though.  :(

Is it possible this isn't a racing game or is it in a racing cab?

Ok, so it's the glass panel from the back of a star wars cockpit cab which was known to have been converted to Outrun and then to Afterburner.

 :lol

Assuming it's from an arcade game and translucent like a marquee, a panel that big wouldn't be easy to come across.
It could be cut out of the end of a big twin cab header.  Those don't always show up on the klov pics.
