I'm working on a project for a graphic design class, and I've been crawling the net looking for a specific type of picture but haven't found it, hoping maybe you guys can help:

If you have any shots of 50's style drive-in diners, preferably at night and in a relatively high resolution, I would GREATLY appreciate it. Would be even better if they had no cars parked in front of them, I'll be doing a composite picture and need it as modular as possible, as it were. Thanks.

And at night DOH!

I'm a photographer...but don't look to me to do your homework.
Get your ass out there and capture the image yourself!

Well, drive-in diners are not in abundance down here. I'm not trying to skip out on the leg work, I'd just prefer to have top-notch sources, and I can't find any wherever I look.

I guess I'll be making a trip down to the bun&barrel one night...

There's a Sonic around here that could make for a good shot, but it might take me a couple of weeks to get it.

Damn,I thought the first post didn't go through so I changed the wording around and added the link and tried posting again and they both came through. I HATE computers.

Ehh, I may end up changing my project idea, the more I think about it the more difficult it'll be to get what I need, and I don't want to kill myself over a small project in an entry level course. Thanks for the help though guys.

P.S., that Super Dawg place, looks AWESOME. I wish they had stuff like that around here... :(
