Kinda fixed...
The IMG tool only works if you put the "http" in (which you did), but it also relies on an 'extension' (usually .jpg), which this hosting doesn't seem to to use for some reason. Putting it in as a link should work!
That's a very clean rim! I'd be even more impressed if I didn't have a set of 5 of those in my loft - in that sort of condition!
cheers

foggyjames, wanna send those shiny alloys to me for free?
one other quick question; when cornering sharply to the right, the engine can stutter a bit, i have not had a chance to check this after its recent service, but i think it may be another design issue. i.e. the certipetal forces opposing the fuel getting into the engine? just wondering, it's not a big problem.

Not for free, but they are potentially for sale - just being saved for a rainy day! There are a few light scratches on the faces from where the previous owner stacked them a little roughly, but they haven't been on a car since they were refurbed. A quick spray with a rattle can would make them 'as new'.
As for the fuel cut-out...hmm...how recently was the filter changed? It almost sounds like a fuel pressure problem to me.
cheers

Some Fords had problems when cornering hard, reason for it was fuel pickup and design of fuel tank, fuel tank full there was no problems.
I know that it is impossible to happen from same reason in 360, but maybe in 340 it is possible?
Can it be electrical problem, some bad connections?
