89-W-Body-Regal Posted December 5, 2015 Report Posted December 5, 2015 I have been looking all over for W body photos of Buick Regals from 1988-1991 mostly. I've joined W body.com because I figured this was the main source for finding things that relate to my car since I own a w body car. If you can help me out that would be really great. I am searching for historical dealership lot photos, factory assembly photos, Car hauler dilvery photos, parking lot photos or general photos of anything when they were first in production around that time. If you can find me any vintage photos of Buick Regals from that time or might have taken photos yourself back in the day I would appreciate it if you shared them. I love looking at old photos of these cars when they first came out. I have some myself of my W body my family had taken when they first bought the regal in 1989. Quote
RobertISaar Posted December 5, 2015 Report Posted December 5, 2015 http://www.w-body.com/topic/54285-vintage-w-body-photo-thread/ you might find a few pictures you're looking for there. 89-W-Body-Regal 1 Quote
89-W-Body-Regal Posted December 5, 2015 Author Report Posted December 5, 2015 Yes, I have seen that thread and was hoping to find other threads with more pics. But didn't come across any yet. Quote
ManicMechanic Posted December 5, 2015 Report Posted December 5, 2015 As far as I know, my thread is the only one here. Quote
94 olds vert Posted December 6, 2015 Report Posted December 6, 2015 Finding early pics of Ws is hard to do. Quote
89-W-Body-Regal Posted December 6, 2015 Author Report Posted December 6, 2015 You're right and there we're many of them on the road back then. That's why it's hard to believe there aren't a lot of pics Quote
Psych0matt Posted December 6, 2015 Report Posted December 6, 2015 Cell phone with cameras = way more unnecessary pictures, which is why they're harder to find. No one took random pictures of cars, drove to the store, had them developed, drove back to the store, and then took them home to say "remember that car we saw last week that was completely ordinary?"

RobertISaar Posted December 6, 2015 Report Posted December 6, 2015 I wouldn't say just cell phone, but digital in general. far less time and money invested in wasted shots now. Quote
89-W-Body-Regal Posted December 6, 2015 Author Report Posted December 6, 2015 i thought Buick took photos of their Buick's. For general advertising public reasons. Quote
89-W-Body-Regal Posted December 6, 2015 Author Report Posted December 6, 2015 I know someone who can find a lot of pictures like that. He use to work for Buick and managed their photos. But he never shares stuff from the 80s to 90s much. Quote
