Show Me Your Vintage P Dealer Plate Frames.

. . . from the '68 thru '70 PDLs . . .

422/109/1
Aero Volkswagen, Inc
1019 West Manchester Blvd
Inglewood, CA 90301

. . . moving + becoming . . .

Aero Porsche Audi, Inc
817 No. LaBrea Ave
etc

. . . sometime after --- late '70, maybe (?)

Jeez --- another band-sander resto, looks like, w/ only the faintest traces of dessicated original paint left --- bluish + whitish (?) that I can tell . . . and, like most Aeros that I've seen . . . pretty beat-up + crackly/crusty + decomposed-looking. See post #48, pic #4 . . .

This particular frame is interesting because, even though Aero calls itself a VW store . . . there's no VW badging --- only Porsche

Anyway, going by the others that I've seen, this prolly started out as white-lettering-on-blue-etc . . . std CA pass plt-etc

A return engagement --- see post #122 . . .

. . . this time w/ some close-ups

From the Aug '68 PDL . . .

426/01/1
Wester Motors, Inc
1187 Del Monte Ave
Monterey, CA 93940

. . . moving/changing names ~'70 to . . .

Wester Porsche Audi, Inc
1 Geary Plaza
Seaside, CA

. . . then, curiously --- shown/listed as moving back to the Monterey address, the following year

Hmm

Dull white lettering/dull black back-round, flash chromed shown w/ vintage CA pass 'black plate'

Wester was involved w/ Porsches from much earlier --- his 1st race win = 1957 . . . but not sure when he began selling them. Had a VW store, too, starting in '61. Going by the format + colors of this frame --- + the similarity to a McAfee? --- see post #13 . . .

. . . I'm guessing that this frame is from the late-'50s-to-early-'60s


Really belongs on a 356, but . . .

Maker = RWB &Co . . .

. . . from the '69 + '70 PDLs . . .

422/129/1
Klein-Foreman Motors
5511 Van Nuys Blvd
Van Nuys, CA 91401

Old-time air-cooled dealer, going back to Gene Klein, in the early '50s, + starting-out w/ Volkswagen

Virtually no paint left on this one, that I can see --- so your guess is as good as mine . . . otherwise, a pretty decent frame w/ only minimal corrosion nibbling away @the plating. Nice + crisp detailing . . . might even survive a resto? Plate = std CA pass, etc

. . . some reference pics . . . mostly VW

Hey Rick,
Is that Klein Foreman for sale?
