    It is the first process of building a car, when the frame, floorpans and body shell gets welded together. Like the cars birthday ........... :thumbs2:

    The weld shops were a separate operation from the assembly line. This is where the term "buck tag" comes from - refering to the metal build tag that follows the shell around to ID it before it reaches the assembly line.

    :)

    I was 9 months old when your car was bucked and 1 year, 10 days old when your car was sold.

    Damn I feel old now! :cry: :slap:
