Rob, I think I'm going to steal that as well (for another forum). Too bad that .gif can't have a white car with two blue stripes. Or can it?...

Re: Some of the avatars you find on sites....

Bob, how could we use this for a "How would it look this color/stripe theme" It would be cool to be able to change the color and stripe layout on a GT40 body to pick out colors. Would need a bigger one with a profile and top down view. Maybe even a front and back.

Re: Some of the avatars you find on sites....

Howard - here are a few I played with earlier (with a little help from Ford). It will work with any colour (just let me know what colour you want), BRMs/Halibrands (I'm still working on Borranis), stripes or plain. Top view, front and back will take a little work but if there's some interest I'll play some more when I can't sleep [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img].

Cheers.

Rob

Re: Some of the avatars you find on sites....

I have gold BRMS, all gold no polished rim, with alum spinners. I want to paint the car medium dark blue with a sill stripe like the one above except with FORD not GT40.

I also will put on static cling numbers like yours. White background with black 7.

If you can do the top,front and back I am going to do one red stripe down the middle 8 inchs wide. 8 inchs is the same as the gap between the radiator exaust. Number circle on the nose but not on the rear quarter.

Thanks Rob
Howard Jones

Here you go Howard - the top view etc may take a little while (as I have a 40 to play with from yesterday!) Cheers - Rob

Hi Chris

I bought the car in the following link:
