Does anyone know what font is used for the Ocean/Beach graphics on the California under the rear side windows?

Fontsquirrel suggests these - quite a few free ones but I don't think it's done a good match:

I've managed to find it, Controller Extended Four. I can do decals in various colours if required, PM me with size wanted for a price. I have a few colours and types of vinyl in stock I can readily do them in, anything I don't have I might be able to get .
Could someone measure the height and width of either the BEACH or OCEAN decals on a California please? I'm trying to make some decals for someone and if I scale the stock font up to say 40mm high, the BEACH decal comes out as 330mm long, trouble is he wants 14 characters in this font and that would be 975mm long!!
Is this what you need? I created this for our van in Adobe Illustrator and had it printed on to vinyl. @JOG kindly measured the decals on his van.
Thanks, yes, if I load that file into my software it comes up as 36mm high, If I transpose that to the decal he wants making, it comes out as 89.4cm long!
If I shrink the characters to match yours widthwise, it reduces it to 86.7cm, still a very long decal.
I can do it but it might look a bit silly. It would be like adding another BEACH to yours, making it as long as the rear window.
