DescriptionThis is an embossed green plate with the white numbers 2-695 in the center of the plate. Below the serial, and written in white paint, is "TRUCK." In the serial number, rather than a dash, there is a Zia symbol (between the #s 2 and 6). On the far left-hand side of the plate is the word "NEW", stacked on top of the word "MEX," which is stacked over the number "32," indicating the year of the plate - 1932. There are four bolt holes, one in each corner, and two additional horizontal bolt slits on the top of the plate.
