Title: Robert J Poeschl Ford plate frame
Post by: 6T7500#590 on January 10, 2021, 12:07:04 PM
I am in the process of replicating a dealer plate frame from Robert J Poeschl Ford in Oxnard California . I am been searching for years to find one but I have been unsuccessful.  Does anyone have one or a picture of one that I use as a reference. All I need is a image to reference the font and layout. Thank you.

If you make any extra I would be interested in one for my car. 
Thanks

  Just a reminder:  some dealers did not have those metal license plate frames, so, are you sure there is one out there?

I am not 100% sure. I inquired with a plate frame dealer at one point and he claimed to have a pair but would not sell one to me. He claimed that they were ultra rare. I did see one for Bob Poeschl Lincoln once.

I'm not sure if this is from the right dealer, was there more than one Ford store in Oxnard ? or time frame you are after ?

No affiliation ! on E-bay at the moment.

Would love to know if Johnny Bolton Ford out of Maitland Florida ever had a plate frame.  I've never seen mention of one but would love to know if one exists.

I've been casually looking fir one for years. Never seen one.

I believe plate frames were more a west coast thing where dealer emblems were most east coast. Of course their are exceptions.

 This is what I came up with. Period vintage newspaper ads were used for the font and layout. I do not know if it is 100% correct.

Is the license plate shown the first issue plate for your car?

Did you make any extras?  I would love to buy one from you!  My 67 GT500 came from that dealership
Thanks
