Default Love all the old ads

But it's odd I've never come across any photos of dealer's showrooms with CMPs photographed, other than some outside images of the tipper and the ad with the long wheelbase CMP with dual rear tyres.
You'd think those photos must have been taken - perhaps still in someone's dusty archive or long forgotten album.

I thought there was a photo of a CMP Ford in Eclipse Motors showroom in Norm Darwin's History of Ford book.
