A National Motor Vehicle Saftey Act Letter From GM............

Great looking protect-o-plate.
It predates 1973 but I don't know by how much.
When I moved to Iroquois Falls, ON in 1973 the 3 smaller towns of Iroquois Falls, Ansonville and Montrock had all been incorporated into 1 community.
The GM ( full line dealer ) in 1973 was called Calvert Motors but had previously been known as Anson Motors and Latour Motors.
If the original owners named has been whited out for security I'd still be interested in knowing. Can you PM me the name? It's just for interest and won't be used for other purposes.

Ok so the court order is US. I wonder if the recall was for Chevrolet engines and GM Canada had to track down Pontiac owners with V8's and Quadrajets. The Chevrolet Quadrajet is side fuel inlet with a plug isn't it and B-O-P and Cadillac are all straight feed .

I was hunting again this afternoon and found this on the floor. Any of you guys have this happen or received a letter from GM about this?? It is cool how they found the car 10 years after it was made! Didn't think they would still cover it under warranty back then.

Note that the vin in the protect-o plate card is missing an "8".

Actually, I think the protecto plate is right and the other document is wrong, don't you think?

My two 66 GP's have been 6766570323XX and 6766570173XX so I think the paper document has one too many digits.

OK...12 for '66 and 13 for '67. Since most of mine are '67 is just figured 13 was the magic number.. So the doc is wrong!!!

In my original post above I made an assumption that since the new owner was in Ansonville ( now Iroquois Falls ) that the car would have been sold there. Bustard Brothers was a full line GM dealer in Matheson ( about 25 miles south of Iroquois Falls and about 40 miles east of Timmins.
Bustard Bros went out of business a few years back and the sons moved to Kitchener/Waterloo area and opened a Chryco dealership.

67 Poncho - does it anywhere on the documents give the dealer number for Bustard Bros? Believe it would be a 4 or 5 digit number starting with 95?

68sd - that's why I was asking. So you could include it in your listing of dealer numbers.
