fame for cologne v6 at last?

I got this in my inbox



I'm a contributor to Wikipedia, the free & open encyclopedia project,
(http://en.wikipedia.org/) and I'm putting together an entry about the
Ford "Cologne" V6. The article really needs a picture, and in
searching around I found your photographs
(http://www.brtheoutsider.freeservers.com/locostbuilder/engine.htm).
Would you be willing to allow use of one of these to illustrate?

I have a 2.4.

I didnt write the text - he has assumed its a 2.9. Ive pointed it out to the author but as the 2.4 / 2.9 are externally identical (so im told) I dont think its a problem. Also told him that hes missed the 2.4 from his list.

I was interested that the cologne is still made - Im supposing its fitted to some yank tank in 4.0 form.....

thats cool, they're decent pictures so i can see why they were interested. I'd love it if anybody noticed my site once it's up and about! I just need to stop getting my finger in front of the lens.
