Hey Peter!

The GIMP User list usually replies to questions like yours right
away, sorry about the lag.  It is a Big Question though.

In broad terms, you will open the image with the background you want
in the GIMP, add the image with the car (or etc.) that you want over
that background on a layer above the desired background, and remove
everything but the car (or etc.) from the top layer.-user-list.

etc.
