Dr Deuce turned me onto this site sponsored and hosted by Brigham Young University. It is of the J Malan Heslop Photograph Collection and contains excellent content from the ETO in WWII.
I particularly like the following shot showing a Wood Bed CCKW with set 7. I am unable to tell what the trailer it is pulling is. SV37 appears on the right rear bumperette. It also appears to have a shop box of some sort mounted in the bed under the tarpaulin. Also in the picture is a WC Command car pulling a used and abused trailer. Above is a Corbitt Bridge erection truck and an M-29 Weasel set up as a wire stringer for the Signal Corps. Good stuff. Click first link

The second link is to the general collection. It takes some serious time to get through them all.
