Photoshop skills needed..
Considering something. Using the top photo, need the yellow stripe changed to white and the black wheels changed to the ones on the Daytona below.
Thanks in advance..

Here you go...
A ten minute job. 90% of a PS job is obtained in the first ten minutes. The remaining ten percent takes hours....

Thank you, Patrick! This is actually a bit better than what I asked for b/c it allows me to visualize what the car might look like with the black wheels along with the stripe alteration. I appreciate your effort! (I believe you may have done this for me before voluntarily, but on a picture that was a bit darker)

Not that you asked, but I like the yellow stripe with the wheels from the Daytona...

You are correct, but your suggestion is appreciated.  I'm thinking of changing the stripe color with a piece of adhesive vinyl, so the most commitment will be associated with the change to the wheels. The Terlingua sticker will need to go, too... maybe replace it with a BRDC sticker:

If someone is able to take Patrick's pic and add the rear wheel from the Daytona in white and delete the Terlingua sticker behind the front wheel, I promise it will be the last request.

I'll jump in....I like the white stripe, leave the wheels black - otherwise they look like plastic wheels - add the BRDC sticker (which means you have to change to RHD) 
Cheers,

 Here you go Allen - just saw this, redone from scratch to show lighting/shadow on stripe and correct placement of front wheel. BRDC sticker added as well (Let me know if you want it removed). Beautiful car!
PS - quite a commendable job Patrick!

Here it is without. A passerby stopped by to check out the shine while I was busy removing the sticker.

Buzz,
She didn't happen to, um, walk around to the front side of the car, did she?

Hi John - I have to agree. I really like the Cobra as is with the yellow stripe and black wheels. Awesome look.

As a matter of fact she did - tried out several poses and outfits too 
Her name is Natasha and I've been photographing and working with her for years. I showed her Allen's reply and she had a giggle. One of my best photoshoots ever.
