Never Give Up!

I always wanted that sticker on the 787b/767b so I made a few! Just thought I'd share, carry on.

Cool sticker, but I don't think this is on the original 787B?

The sticker does appear to have been added later, as it is not present in most period photographs (but does show up in modern photos). I'm not sure when or why they were added, but both #55 and #56 seem to have it now.

Yeah, look back at the pictures I took at the mazda museum, the 787B on display doesn't have that sticker, so they probably added it later.

Cool sticker regardless

Was the flyin' "M" emblem on the sticker even used back in the day? I think they were still using the toilet bowl.

But I agree, it is kinda cool. IMO even cooler if it didn't have the flyin' M but an Efini emblem instead.

I think Mazda made that logo after the tsunami that happened a few years back. It was kind of like all the 9/11 stickers and things that you saw after 9/11 happened.
