Thanks for the info regarding the plate. It is Grenadier Red, color RPO715A - no two tone. It also has the trim rpo258a, but I'm not sure what that is for the 60. I see later years show that as a deluxe seat? Any ideas?

Oh, and I spoke with my father this morning regarding the tailgate, why it may have been missing the lettering. He said this tailgate was one he bought from the chevy dealer in the early 70's after destroying the first one. The one that is one there is SEVERELY beaten, and I mean BAD. Not from rust, just farm use. Workers put the tailgate down and use it as a workbench....for 30 yrs.

The longer I spend on this site the more I want to start fixing up the body...
