Here's a very nice color photo from the late 1940's according to the Lafayette/West Lafayette facebook nostalgia website where I found it.
82B and 63B in fresh paint, late on what looks to be a summer day, with the sun low at Shops.

Notice the bus parked inside the shop next to 63B?

The Shops photo is likely from the early fifties, given the "eyebrow" hand-holds on 82B.  Also, although 63B's paint looks fresh, 82B's doesn't.  It still has the original-paint gold pin-stripes bordering its lower white stripe, and its pilot looks pretty grimy.
