Hey folks. Anyone know of a shop or hobbies t that restores dealer frames?
Got my eyes on one from the dealer my car was sold from new - hoping I can make this come together - but it’ll need polishing and the infill and letters painted.
Thanks! _________________ Mike

Thought you might like these Dave, found some paperwork from the purchase of the 1968. The beetle has never left the valley!

Just saw this 15 window for sale and noticed the plate frame and sticker. I think the sticker is easily reproduced

I'm pretty stoked about this find I picked up at the AACA Fall meet in Hershey last week. I've seen city frames from places on the west coast like Hollywood and Los Angeles. But this is the first time I've seen Pittsburgh.
Til I can get my hands on a Continental Cars frame for my 56 it'll stay on the back. Then it'll probably end up on the front with my vintage personalized plate.

S
o I bought a large collection ,of parts and pieces. One if the items are a set of Volkswagen frames with the VW logo and MR Bubblehead.
When My father worked for VOA in Pleasanton these were the frames they used on their cars or if you bought a car as an Employee these were put on as there was no dealer involved.
They have no no name on the back of them and I have seen very few of them. I looked through this whole thread and only found one.
Does anyone have a comment on that or help to obtain a price.
