[kaleido]

I got a bit lucky, I think. I just picked up an original sales book and it
appears to be the year of my truck 1950.

Came complete with a salesman card for Central Chevrolet, Clare Jacobs of
Cleveland Ohio. The prior owner had made some notes in the margins but what was really neat were the three hand written sheets showing options and costs.
