Default Overhead picture request

I need help finding a picture from directly overhead. I'm going to make a vector based drawing of the Corvette, so I'd prefer a line drawing, but I can trace a regular picture, so either will work. If you can post a picture, link or tell me what page to look at in the service manual, I'd greatly appreciate it.

The service manual, this site and Google has lots of pictures from some angle, but if there's anything from directly overhead, I can't seem to find out.

Not a C5, but it's a Vette
