This is a shot in the dark, but what the heck, it never hurts to ask...

Years ago there was a Volvo dealer in Pasadena (the first in Southern California) and then later, Costa Mesa, California, called Dean Lewis Volvo. The 242 turbo I'm restoring came from the Pasadena store and I'd dearly love to find a Dean Lewis license plate frame for the car. I'm sure most of them have been recycled or trashed by now but I thought I'd try anyway. My girl friend has one, D.L. was her grandfather, but she won't part with it. I've been to boneyards all over the area with no luck, I'm hoping someone has one hanging around their garage...

    For similar reasons I wrote a dealership hoping they'd have one of their die cast emblems in a drawer. They were kind enough to respond, though no dice. At least I had the original pitted thing to fix up.
