looking for 81+ 'Burb pictures

Can anyone post some pictures of 81-87 (88-91) Suburbans? I am looking for stock type, either 2by or 4by, good quality pictures for the website. I have been searching high and low and cannot find any decent ones.

Good quality means no open hoods or doors, clean backgrounds, no other vehicles nearby, and no people in or around the vehicle. They also have to be good looking trucks, no rust, dents, and so forth.

I know I may sound picky, but once I find the pictures I need..it will make sense.

Thanks in advance.

I have a couple and could get you a couple of my 88. It's a clean olf Grampa truck with factory pizza pans. It has some add ons like a Conferr style rack on it and some Big Hellas though.

What sort of resolution are you looking for?

I know a place close to my house I can get a Black road surface against a off white building if the light coperates if your trying to get a easy to cop out picture.

That would be awesome!

Image size doesn't matter and I am not cropping these, so that is why I need a clean background.

Thanks for your help

Jeff ,

you should go back to school to learn some french , I think...

the site is :
www.dreams-cars.net
devoted mainly to muscle cars , but the webmaster , a surprising 16 years old boy , has created also a forum , where the members from France , Spain & belgium have decided to meet in the middle of France the first weekend of May this year

I'll be there...

Nice bunch of nuts out there

I have some in the direct sun the shadows were very noticable and it looked very dark under the truck. The rockers faded into the shade and looked a little odd. I too this one in the shade and it seemed to pull the best detail.

Whan it's done I will let you all know so you can tell me what you think.
