Default New project for BC. Need your help!

Garblin sent me a PM with a very interesting request. He'd like to see a chronological picture post of the progression of the Bonneville by year. Let'* take it a step further, and actually do it with each trim level of each year as well.

Please take the time to post clear pics of your car, and clearly state what year and trim level it is. Make the pic clear enough so that the differences in trim can be clearly seen. If you see a 95 SSE already posted, don't post yours, as we don't want to clutter this up. Please post only pics of YOUR OWN car.

After all the common years are done, we'll enter a discussion and search for pics of the older years that we don't have members to cover. Keep the chit-chat to a minimum. Now let'* try to start this with 1987, and see if we can post the late 80'*/early 90'* first, in order, and cover all 3 trim levels offered for each year of that generation to kick things off (those posting SSE'* try to show the tail if you can, a left rear or right rear shot to cover the differences as much as possible).

Pictures will be compiled offline into some other format in order.

Let'* try for ONE shot of the exterior of each one, showing as much detail as possible. Factory equipped cars preferred. Maybe a front quarter shot and a rear quarter shot of each, but not multiple pics. We're trying for EXTERIOR only here.

I have a question, I know you want to keep the chit-chat to a minimum so I'll keep it short.
you say you prefer a factory equipped car, does that exclude us guys that has custom rims, exhaust, body mods? Or what?

Correct. Let'* have factory wheels. Try to get the WHOLE car in one or two shots. Tint is ok, but we're trying to represent the changes by the factory from year to year.

Factory wheels for the proper year, and factory tips too, please. this is for the benefit of those that haven't learned the differences yet between each year.
