    Courtesy Chevrolet in Phoenix, Modern Motors in Glendale CA

    I have license plate frames from each. NOT looking to sell. Looking to gift these to owners whose cars came from those dealers originally. Not looking for license frame collectors--looking for owners.

    I do not recall a Chevrolet dealer in Glendale, CA with the name Modern Motors.

        That is really a great, thoughtful, and generous thing for you to do. I am sure an owner with one of their cars would be very happy. I searched for a long time to find my San Diego, Guaranty Chevrolet frames for my '64. Nice items to have. Good luck!

            Unless they have moved, no. I have not cruised around central Phoenix in years but the last I knew of it, it was on Camelback and still had their landmark HUGE 50s type sign.

              Yeh, I remember now. I bought my 57 4dr BelAir from them. That's why I thought I know them. Thanks anyway. Hugh

                I had a very early '67 sold by Courtesy in Phoenix. The address from the window sticker is P.O. Box 7709. Phoenix, AZ. The physical address is on Camelback. The dealer and zone from the document is 39087. I sold this car to a local NCRS friend last year. I'd be happy to pay for shipping and get the frame to him if it is still available. It is a white/red 390 horse roadster, beautiful car.

                    Mike, thank you. I sent you an email with my address. I'll see the owner of the car at an NCRS Chapter meet in Houston on Saturday. He will be thrilled.
                    I'll let him know it is a gift from you.

                          The surround is on its way. It'll be too late. USPS says Monday.

                            That's fine, Mike. Thank you, again. The car will be in San Antonio in July. White/red 427 roadster with no radio, it is beautiful. The owner of it will be in Houston tomorrow, Michael.

                              Mike, the frame arrived, thank you. I'll pass it on to the owner of the '67 on Saturday at the shop we all meet at.
