Hunt Motors - Penticton

#1 Post by bfein1075 » Thu Sep 30, 2021 7:40 am

Does anyone have any info on Hunt Motors. I know they were a rover dealer back in the day. My 62 has their logo faintly on the back.

Looking for any pics, license plate frames, etc.

Thanks

That place has not existed for well over 45 years.

I know. That’s why I’m wondering if anyone has any info on them.

If you do a search as follows "hunt motors" Penticton you will get a number of hits. Here is one of them. The museum in Penticton has an extensive scanned library of photos (at least for train stuff) and I found them to be more than helpful in the past.

Yeah I’ve seen their archive but I’ve never found a pic with a Land Rover or anything else like a plate frame.

Have you thought of putting an ad in the local paper stating what UR looking for, I would be surprised if at least family members or mechanics families don't still live in the area.

I guess I could. I just figured I was probably not the only one with a truck from there who is on the forum so worth asking.

Another question.

Anyone recognize what logo used to be here?

Forestry?
