Question for the old timers

Here's one out of left field that I'm hoping to get an answer on. I'm working on a little project and am trying to find out what color the old Kleen Flo logo was from the 70s. I beleive it was a Castrol product, so it might be orange and green....but I've had no luck in gleaning the internet looking for this vintage logo. I've seen it in a number of program photos, but of course they are all black and white.

This is a pic of the turn 1 billboard in question. What I'm trying to figure out is what color the chevrons are.

Also, just to throw this out there, here's a question: Are there any billboards that you'd consider iconic when it comes to Delaware? Remember back in the day they only had 4 or 5 signs around turn 1/2, and one lonesome one down in turn 3.....and that was it. I've got an Export A one, a Red Cap one, the Coca-Cola one with the lap counter. Anyone care to jog my memory on any others? I know that even back then they changed every year...so thinking of a billboard as "iconic" may be a stretch, but I thought I'd ask anyway.

Also...one more thing. If anyone has ANY photos with the pitside snack bar/tech shed in the background (as it stood in the 70s or early 80s), please get in touch with me. Vintage race car pics are tough to come by, but pics of the facility itself are even harder.

Thanks
