And another.



I think I already did some ones of your friends in the light green one a while back.

Hi Pete ,
The trick is , with Photoshop ;
1 ; Extend image size (on the right on your picture)
2 ; Dupliclicate the image in another layer
3 ; On this new layer , with selection tools , make a patch resonnably sized in the immediate aera (on the bumper on your picture) and resize this layer ...
3 ; With manual transformation tools , extend that patch in the direction you need to ... without touching the connecting extremity ...That patch must be bigger than the supposed add , because it ll be cut out on 4...
4 ; Then , with selection tools draw the bumper end (here , you have to know how an Elan bumper is !) and cut the unnecessary parts
5 ; Here start refinment , and time stop ...
Let's do it on that one as a training ... and tell me if some things stop you ...
And yes , we allready have a complete CD of the light green one ... My favorite his the one from back , far , at the entrance of the stands ...
Christian.

My old brain will take some time to absorb that.

We must get together this year. CLOG are booked in at Maison Blanche. We have an Internationally Certified chef who has something of a track record at Le Mans (his team of green cars won the race in '03 but that was merely a prelude to this):



Les Sapeurs Pompiers attended but decided that it was a false alarm and tucked in to the the surplus sausages.

slightly off topic but the pics got me thinking about the side light/indicator light differences....

Can anyone advise on the difference in side lights on S1 / S2, some have orange and others white sidelights. I was looking at what others seem to have done and used the orange side lights as indicators and made the side larger lights recesses into cooling ducts.
can anyone shed any light on this practice

Gordon,
Ask the question in the "Elans" area, nobody looks at the photo gallery.
