Car looks great Steve and hope our travels cross soon cause I'd love to see it in person.

Norwood, You should start producing those flare protectors for us to buy!

Another random helpful hint: I used some of the extra 3M clear protective material and placed a 1 inch tall by 10 inch wide strip in the exact area when the base of the license plate frame would rub the fiberglas panel. I also used several washers under the two mounting bolts for the license plate assembly hinge to space it out about 3/8ths of an inch from it's normal position. This allows the license plate and original dealer frame to clear the fiberglas tail panel without gouging it when I fill the tank with gas.

I'll take you up on that as long as I can trade you for one of your 73 SDs.

I won't be greedy, I'll take the automatic! :-)

Steve,

I get my M35 serviced at the Infiniti dealer in Roseville. It's right across the street from Reliable Pontiac. I was going to snap a pic for you but this is in the auto mall, which is fairly new. What is the address on your PHS? I cold check it out and see what is there now.

Back in '72 they were at 105 Vernon Street, Roseville, CA 95678.

I'd love to see a photo of the old location!

Steve,

Here are some pictures of Reliable Motors as it is today at the Roseville Auto Mall. It is only a few miles (as the crow flies) from the old Vernon St location. I do not know when they moved out there.
