BTW, is it a sportomatic? I only see two pedals.

At first I thought no, but looing closer, it does appear the clutch pedal is MIA. or stuck on the floor.. Looks like the carpet is slit for it...

Ok, Thanks to this thread, I've gone minimalist and taken my script OFF! Thanks to John for getting this one going. Even my 11yo daughter likes the new look.

Next, RSR finish on the wheels.

I wish I could. iPhoto has a simple (idiot proof) tool that lets you remove blemishes. It worked to erase the script but I can't cut and paste or add anything. That would take something like photoshop. I can turn a wrench, not a mouse.

An observation:
I suspect from the pattern of responses that many Americans lack the "embarrassment gland" found in most Europeans, many Canadians and some Australians.

I guess I missed where Americans invented Carrera sidescript and Scuderia shields. I would throw in something that Aussies invented but darned if I can think of one

Young Einstein...
Quote:
Albert Einstein, the son of an apple farmer in Tasmania in the early 1900s, splits a beer atom with a chisel in order to add bubbles to beer, discovers the theory of relativity and travels to Sydney to patent it. While there, he invents the electric guitar and surfing while romancing Marie Curie. He invents rock and roll and uses it to save the world from being destroyed due to misuse of a nuclear reactor under the watchful eye of Charles Darwin.

Go for it! Your car would be a great candidate.

Green (car) - for the money
Gold (scrip) - for the honeys!

Good call! IMO, the script belongs on the cars that are, you know, Carreras. As in the factory calls them that.

Just checking on opinions on Carrera stripes on my yellow Carrera ??
Photoshop help would be GREAT !!
#1 Yes or No ??
#2 Do I need to remove stone guards ?? Worried the paint under the guards is not the same color as who knows how long the stone guards have been on !!
#3 Already have the Carrera stripe. It has been shrunk to fit more on just the door area.

Merry Christmas, Bill
