Searching for AMR team truck pictures of the DBR-9 on the side

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone can help me out.
I am looking for a good picture of the Aston Martin Racing Truck trailer. The one with the DBR-9 on the side as withe stripes.
I am currently building a 1/24 scale model of the truck to assist my DBR-9 cars but good pictures are hard to find.
Any picture of the truck can help me, but I am especially looking for the white DBR-9 on the side of the trailer to guide me when designing the decals.
The AMR DBR-9 truck was seen from 2005-2008 with any race the offical team attended, later only when they brought their V8 Vantage. The Other races of the last 2 years it has the same white striped, but now the LMP1 aston on the side.
The BMS trailers had the same DBR-9 on the side so they could help too if any of you have pictures or now where to find them on the internet. JetAlliance have a grey striped DBR-9 on a white truck so photo's of that truck could help me aswell. Not sure if Larbre, Modena or Gigawave had it on their trailer too...?

Hope someone can help me out, any picture can help me further. Thank you in advance.

Kai

Thank you, they are nice!!
The trailer differs a small bit from the one in europe, or the one from last years spa race so nice to see the open door on the side. Unfortunatly this building idea came a few weeks ago after that race so didn't take good pictures of the trailer, but still wouldn't have the dbr-9 silhouette.

Every one of them help me with the building process!!

Still, a good view of the striped DBR-9 would ease my decal designing process

Only get depressed of the 3 wheel axles of the MAN truck
----
Got the right MAN TGA XXL truck but with 2 axles and would need to buy another kit for the 3rd... I started with the building of the truck chassis and this would be a setback, because some parts need to be chopped off and need to scratchbuild a smaller fueltank... Hope no one will notice it
Second step is to get the (subaru team truck set) trailer right in the first place and scratchbuilt an interrior (3rd wheel axle?) and a rear elevator trailer door in open possition. Enough to do this summer before the decal designing step. Luckally got some finished DBR-9s lined up already

Will show some pics for the interested ones after I am a bit further with building after my mid term exams in 2 weeks time.

I have a vector line drawing of a DBR-9 if that helps. I created it from...well lets say, some good reference...but it might not be identical to the truck line drawing.

Drop me a line if I can be of help (same with logos) - I'm interested in how you would make these logos. I have some 1/43rd models which I want to put my own real world liveries on, but drawing a blank on making such small decals.

Hmmm. I KNOW I had some, but the only ones I found to date are useless, due to camera shake, sorry.

I'll keep looking.
