Recently acquired this for a 1965 Chevrolet pick up. Don't see them very often and have never seen one for the 1965 year. Curious, I Googled it and found that 1965 was the very first offering for the metal warranty plate known as the "Protecto-plate" It shows vehicle was delivered Nov. 17, 1964 to Pierson Chevrolet In Dewey county, Taloga, Oklahoma. Rather unique piece being the first year that they were used. Some staining on the cover, pen marks on the back show W/S was cracked July 25th but no year ('65 maybe) Warranty shows a short length 24 month/24,000 mile warranty. Two Delco battery warranty certificates intact.

Anyone have a WIW idea for a rather rare piece?
