Anything left of W/H in South Bend?

My wife and have been invited to our nieces wedding :) in South Bend Indiana this May and I'm wondering if there's anything left of Wheel Horse :wh: there?  If there is some history still there, I'd love to visit it while we are out there!  If anyone knows about this, please let me know and thanks!

Here ya go.

 

There was a dealer in the area that worked with Wheel Horse but that too has been repurposed.

There's a few on display in the Studebaker museum. The museum is a cool tribute to the Studebakers and the areas history and well worth the visit but not to just see the Wheel Horses. They are more of an afterthought but hopefully that will improve later this year. 

Their manufacturing plant on Ireland Road is still there but is now Lock Joint Tube with no trace of what they use to be. Kinda cool to see if you know the history.

Some people think that because they were made here it should be a hotspot for finding them. Not so.
