Hi GFW1985,

That's what I plan to do is call. Since our state is bankrupt, the DMV
is not open Fridays, Saturdays and never was open on Sundays. This
is true in our area anyways. I plan to call on monday.
I'll try to follow up with what they say on here as well.

Hi NumberDummy,

Makes sense, though we only had highways in California until the first
freeway opened in 1965 and Ronald Reagan started the forerunner
of CalTrans in 1972, I agree that whatever agency that did road work
probably special ordered the pickup. I was also thinking maybe an airport
would use something like that back in the early 60's ?

The color looks closest to "Safety Orange," a generic, or the 1962 Dodge
truck color "Omaha Orange" but toned down a bit.

I looked at another P/U today, this one has a title (but from Arizona) and
at least it drives. It was a '61 (E10TH278418, 090, F, E103, A, 01) but
it had a 200 I6 in it. Pretty peppy, I was surprised. My Falcons are not
that quick with good/solid 200's in them. My plan was to get a cheaper
engineless P/U like the first two I saw and use either a 200 I6 or 5.0L EFI
spares I got, oh well...

The '61 is driveable so of course he is asking almost 3 times as much for
it, making my decisions that much harder...
