Sold most of th eframes i collected over the years (only so much room for junk...) but stil have these two left, if anyone interested in a trade for something (wife, sister, girlfriend, cat...).
Not seen a New York one before and no idea who Bob Bozanni is!


 Bozanni VW is still in business.  Though I never met Bob, there were plenty of stories years ago about how he had an actual Guru for help in making key business decisions Shocked Roll Eyes.

The Bozzani family has been selling cars since 1911.  My dad was a good friend and fraternity brother of Bob's at Occidental College here in the greater Los Angeles area.  My father and Uncle bought new VW's, a ghia and standard beetle respectively, in 1971.  My crew cab was purchased there new, in '61, and my ragtop was serviced there after being brought over from Germany.  Bob's son runs it now.  Lots of history for me.

I'd be interested in that frame.  Let me know.

Thanks.

Dave

In Arizona they passed a law that goes into affect on January 1st that you cannot have a license plate frame that blocks the state name at the top of the plate.  The fine is $130 if you get caught.  On the news they were saying that this will hit almost everyone in the state.  Don't you just love Big Brother.....?

Sorry dude, no Veale's in my collection. I got the first one from a junk yard in Cali in '06, but bought the most in the last year or so..

I know my memory, like me, is getting up in age... but the only Newport Beach, So Cal Porsche dealer that I remember is still standing. Back in the '70s/'80s, it was called Chick Iverson Porsche+Audi. I'm half certain that they may have sold Volkswagens, as well. Last I checked, it's called Pristine Porsche and Land Rover and they're still located on Pacific Coast Highway.

Yes they did Fred:





These aren't mine though, so I can't help you. But these Chick Iverson frames do come up for sale from time to time. You might want to put a 'wanted ad' on thesamba.. Good luck!

If anyone wants to date dealers or see distributors in the U.S and years of dealership distribution, the samba has a very informative chart. I just happened to come across this page on a google search. I was trying to date my Wes Behel Sunnyvale license plate frames.
