What year car is it?

'76 but can you imagine even a '68 with wires?!

Just checked out Firebirds.

I think the 300bhp rule will apply.

1967 with more than 300bhp (I think) - 575bhp @7500RPM

Pre 72, so ok.

I feel i need to find some blinders so no-one, not even Gordon, can doubt the theorum.

Fast car...

Nice car but not spokes I think. Alloys.

Easy problem to solve! If the car I am modelling had black wheels, the model gets black wheels.

But I am easily confused!

When the car has 3 black wheels and 1 silver!
