My buck tag has 4 small shapes cut out. They are unique each is difficult to describe but no more than 1/4 " square. I believe them to be inspection codes but??? Has anyone else pondered this??

Which factory did your car came from. I have this picture of a Metuchen buck tag from 1967 [This message has been edited by T5owner (edited 12-21-2001).]

Only Dearborn and Metuchen Mustangs had buck tags. Most owners have removed them, but if you still have one, leave it on your Mustang. If you could post a picture of the buck tag, that would help us all out.

On both my wifes 65 Fastback & my 69 Coupe which were both Metuchen built cars they both still had their buck tags after all these years. Most previous owners probably didnt know what they were for.------------------ Mike & Robin 65 Mustang Fastback 69 Mustang Coupe 87 LTD CV 96 Ranger Extd Cab PU 99 Explorer Sport M&M #- 890 MCA #- 4549
