Very interested in seeing your Protect-o-plate Pete - I have owned a dozen Chevy trucks with Protect-o-plates over the years, but never had a GMC with one. My 64 GMC had all its original ppwk, but I do not remember ever seeing a protect-o-plate with it if it was present. The glue would come undone and the plate will fall out of the book, or the section of the back cover its glued to will get bent back and forth enough over 40 years to break it off....most are lost forever. Since the stamping machine that created protect-o-plates was used by all GM divisions as a standard appliance, seems to me all plates on any car or truck should have the customers name and address on it....this is definitely the first one I ever heard of not having that information on it. Another mystery to ponder
