Call her, say nice things about her, tell her she's pretty, and then ask her out!  That's how you can date her!!!

Seriously tho, there isn't a serial number chart that you can cross reference (like vendo has) that I'm aware of...somewhere in the 50's is anybody's guess.

Just don't let your neighbor try to stick his dime in her.
