Photoshop Is In Order

This may be a stretch. Can someone please photoshop the tail out of this picture. Does anyone have a higher quality version of this pic? Mines not that great. I want it to look like my car basically, thank you.

anyone have a better version of this picture. Looks like someone has messed with this one, you can see a black box covering the rear and front right tires for some reason

I used the BIG scan of the picture that was provided by a friendly Pelican a while back to make a print of the original ad:



The flaws in the original scan do not appear quite as noticeable in the print version (but still there if you look)
I bought the original 2-page ad on ebay to get the text, then purchased the exact font to do the main (bold) text. Did some re-sizing to come up with a 18x12 inch print that a typical photo lab (Costco) could print for little money.

Limited time offer: Click and save the image in this link. (Will take a while to load as it is a Large file 2700x1800 pixels 150pixels/inch)
Put it on a CD or memory card and take it down to Costco for a 18x12 print for about $5. Ask them for NO color/contrast correction, or they may try to lighten the image, making the scanning streaks more visible.

Black box removed as well as most of the scan stripes

I'll have a bit more of a play with this as I think I can improve on it further. If someone can provide an upload link I will send the 2700x1800 image when finished.
Dave.
