Here is a close-up of the dash plate as shown in the January 26th, 1968, edition of the Seattle Times. I think it was polished gold (no horizontal lines) with the title and owners name with the font shown. We don't know the size. Hopefully Scott can figure that out if there was a mark left on his dash.
