If you haven't tried them already, since they're still in business it may be worth contacting them first and see if they happen to have any of the correct era ones still around?.
Make sure to ask about old files/documents too!.

...Howard Selman founded Selman Chevrolet in Orange in 1952. This month the company celebrates 55 years of dedicated service to the city of Orange. The current President, Bill Selman and his family are dedicated to continuing the proud tradition of excellence in pricing, service and repair that Howard started.
Selman Chevrolet in Orange has 262 employees; some having been with the company for more than 30 years. The employees are treated like family and enjoy a wonderful company environment. They work hard and are well compensated for their dedication to the company...

I lived about a mile from Selman before I moved to AZ....there are at the intersection of Tustin Ave and Chapman Ave in Orange.

I don't think I've ever seeen a dealer badge on any of their cars...other than a license plate frame???

Thanks for your help maybe I can track down even a licence plate frame and fill the holes. Any chance you know of an extra plate frame?
