    Here's a little later version of the Porsche Audi North Frame. I'm assuming this is mid to late '70s

    Judging by the baja beetle on the roof, I'd say yes.

    Prestige . . .

    From the '72 PDL . . .

    Prestige Porsche Audi, Inc
    2955 So. Division Ave
    Grand Rapids, MI

    Looks to be un-painted letters in matte-med-blu letterboxes, flash-chromed, no Makers' marks/ID. Plate in std MI pass iss, etc

    Nice-enough condition-wise, I suppose --- straight + etc . . . but what an eye-full, huh? Just look at all the 'stuff' on this! --- cursive-style script, w/ block fonts, full Porsche | AUDI . . . + all just jammed into a pretty-tight/little space. And not a Big-time dealer, either (guessing). Frame makes up for it, I think

    Otherwise, just another little-known dealer, also/previously selling Porsches as Prestige Automobiles, Inc ('70 - '71), same address. Come to think of it --- this frame looks a like a cross between both?

    Still doing business? --- maybe? . . .
