WTB H.Caldwell Motor Co. in Belen ,New Mexico License Plate Frames
I bought a 72 Shortbed that was sold through this H. Caldwell Motor Co. in Belen, New Mexico. I would like to buy a set of metal license plate frames if anyone had some.

Thats Kool, we have a 1971 that was bought in Belen NM from Caldwell motor also. The dealership also used to sell Buses. We got it here in NM from the original owners son who is now 65. The dad is 95 and still kicking but can't drive anymore. The dealership used to put on bus rodeo's. They sold buses also. Maybe Google that and you will find more info. We have the original build sheet from ours and data plate and such.

My ‘67 is also from Caldwell in Socorro. Have the original stamped bumper still. Been trying to track down more info with no luck.

FWIW - I'm not sure that this or many other dealers in NM had license plate frames. Such frames were common in CA (and I really want one from Harloff Chevrolet Encinitas!!). The large Chevy dealers in the day here in ABQ used decals on their pickups and dealer embossed bumpers. Nevertheless I'll keep an eye out.

Can you take a picture of the sticker from the dealer?? To see if we can get some made like the guy that made the Ed Black dealer stickers. ???

So I have a friend that has a cousin that knows the family. I asked him to see if he could reach out to them. I'll keep you posted.
