Photo Shop help needed.
 
Hello everyone,

Can someone with Photo Shop please change the wheel colors on this car from silver to a yellow color like the one used on the nose.

Thanks in advance,

Todd

Hey Guy's

Thanks for the help, nope not me. This was a shot of the P.O. in the drivers seat, my car now will post new pics this weekend when it warms up.

I got two full sets of wheels with the car one set of slicks and one rain tires plus one extra wheel just thinking about powdercoating one set a different color.

That is the 1.6 L Ford Kent Cross Flow, used by Ford and Lotus in Europe/UK for many years and also powers generations of Formula Ford type cars. This one is 138 HP dyno'ed at the rear wheels at roughly 5300 rpm, trans is a 4 speed Ford with Ford rear 3.77 gears. The car is a 70 Lotus Seven Series IV, carbs are 40 Webers, compression 12/1 on 114 octane leaded fuel. Cast head/block, dry sumped, electronic ingnition instead of the original Lucas. Car weighs just over a thousand pounds.

The old motors have become so popular that Ford is bringing back a crate engine of it for 2010 first quarter to replace the aging engines available for Formula Ford for vintage racing. The new engine is aluminum not cast iron like the orignal.
