The Bucktag wouldn't be equivalent to the Vacuum hose tag that is mounted to
most cars these days would it? You know what I mean? the little tag that
tells how all the vacuum hoses route (a priceless tool when diagnosing a
rough running engine), and the size of the motor, etc., etc...

Never seen such a tag on early Mustangs... only on newer cars and they
were in decal form.

These Mustangs had a engine ID tag located on the engine.... but they
aren't buck tags either.
