WO Dealership Photos?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hey everyone,
So this is a long shot, but does anyone know of any good archives or places to find photos of old Willys-Overland dealerships? I did a google search and game up empty. I am particularly looking for a photo or photos of the WO dealer that once existed in Council Bluffs, Iowa. I have a Willys-Overland dealer sign that I recently picked up and the guy I bought it from found it in a barn in Council Bluffs, and says he believes it was from the Council Bluffs WO dealer back in the 30's/40's.  It would be awesome to find a picture of this dealership with this sign hanging in front of it!

Thanks in advance!
