Re: Found protecto plate

Looks like a 69 Fremont built truck. What is the digit after the 8. I’m kinda special trying to read backwards and can’t make it out :lol: maybe 45739 as the last 5? If so that’s the 45,739th unit to come off the fremont line in 1969, so likely a mid model year build C10. If I’m reading it right the first owner was a hospital in Oregon so it’s likely it was built as a fleet vehicle.
