    Just as an example, the road test of the 275GTS in the September 1966 issue of R&T has a clear picture of the rear end of the car on pages 29 & 30, showing Nevada license plate D1-71 in one of the MCM frames. It appears to be a conventional chrome-plated frame, with a white insert on top reading "RENO" and a white insert on the bottom reading "MOTOR CLASSIC MOTORS". At the moment my scanner isn't hooked up to this computer, so I can't post a picture of it.

    I would also like one - I am sure they are very rare - but if enough people need one sombody might make them.
    My 330 was sold twice there - new and later used.

    Cheers

    I would also be interested to know if the MCM records exist somewhere. My car passed through them and I would be interested to know the first dealer and buyer.
