Any info on Willapa Harbor Motor Company?
« on: July 11, 2014, 04:13:27 PM »
I got my shipping info in the mail a couple weeks ago and so far I'm coming up empty handed on info on my 68s original dealer. The car was shipped to Willapa Harbor Motor Company in Raymond Washington.

I used that database of dealerships on the NCRS site and have hit a roadblock. A result is noted to have complete factory invoices on cars but their is no email to get in contact with them about inquiring if they have my cars. Also is a factory invoice like a window sticker or like a inventory list? Last 67 my grandfather has came with a inventory list from its original dealership that showed the car on the lot.

Any info is good info just trying to find anything on my 68.

I'd try contacting any Chambers of Commerce in that area or town websites, ask them about any old dealership or give them that street address in the dealer database.  Those comments in the dealer database may be old.  Here's an old thread showing what paperwork they might have been referring to

and here's the City of Raymond, WA website:
