The first reference I found (on a cursory search) to the 261 is for installation in the 6000 series in 1956. I suppose it could mave been used outside the US before inside but ....

You are probably on the money ,as usual..
I had a '56 Canadian built Pontiac Laurentian with the original 261 Engine in it ..I bought it in '64 in Saskatchewan so know I was the 2nd owner..
Same colour and identical to one shown here..
Wish I still had it..

Ryans 1st link,
nice front fairleads! Rarely see them left on the truck. Can't work out if the front wheels have the spacers to match the rear duels. Wonder if the door and doghouse are out back of the shed?
Vendor also has a nice Series 3 FFR Landie, and a 46 Hilman Minx if you are into that sort of thing.
Rich

Special Pattern vehicle books:
I've seen second editions and a fifth edition(?) on ebay in the past.

How about this: Rover Scout Car
