Need Apollo Lunar Roving Vehicle Reference

Does anyone know of a photo-reference site for the Apollo-era moonbuggy? I've done the Google thing, and most images are all side-on. While helpful, I need more information about the forward and aft sections where the wheels attach. Thanks in advance!
 
I pulled this text from Wiki,

Replicas of rovers are on display at the National Museum of Naval Aviation in Pensacola, Florida, the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum in McMinnville, Oregon, and the Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center in Hutchinson, Kansas. A replica on loan from the Smithsonian Institution is on display at the Mission: Space attraction at Epcot at the Walt Disney World Resort near Orlando, Florida.

Why not get a camera and a plane ticket to location that's near you and snap some pictures.
 
From your profile Imaginager, you're at Willamette Valley, is that in Oregon? The Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum in McMinnville, Oregon is in your area.
 
I have lots of shots of the test articles that are at the museum in Seattle and a couple of the one at Huntsville, I can look to see what they show. I wouldn't go with a replica, some of them are very poorly built. In fact, I wouldn't go with anything at McMinnville, as almost nothing in their space hangar is the real deal...
