    Does anyone have a listing or Willys Dealerships in the Los Angeles area? I am trying to identify the location of "Crown City Motor Company" that was in business in 1936. They were a sponsor of a Willys 77 in the 1936 Gilmore Yosemite Economy Run. Thanks for your ***istance! Dave

    Just a guess but I would say Pasadena as it has been known as "the crown city"

    I agree, am originally from there...suggest you call the Pasadena City Library and see of they have phone directories back to the '30s, it might be in one.

    Or check the city directories, historical center, etc. for records of such in 1936.
