I tried decoding it with my LMC catalogue. it says if the first 2 numbers are 10 it's a 1/2 ton, 15 it's a 3/4 ton, but it doesn't list 25 so I would guess 1 ton. The 3rd and 4th numbers are the bed length, 01 is shortbed, 02 is longbed, but no 03 so maybe 9 ft? P is the assembly plant, Pontiac. N is the year, 60-61, and the numers after are the build number, N10001-N26000 is 60 and N26001 and up is 61. The letter at the end is the GVW rating, A is 5,000 lbs, B is 7,000 lbs.

61 1ton with a 9ft bed?
