    It looks like the SPR on the body buck tag would confirm it as a Sprint as well.

    Yep, and I'll bet STD is for standard transmission. My brother's '73 was also a standard, can't wait to see if it has STD also.

    Well ... Jamie and I were looking at my car at the BBQ joint yesterday ... and lo and behold ... there is a screw on my radiator support holding on the remants of a buck tag. Apparantly my Yellow 74 had one and somebody snapped it off at some point in it's life.

    John Furgeson had his Wayne built 74 their ... his car also has a buck tag.

    Ok where exactly is it at? You say passenger side but in the pic you point out driver side. If i had one would it be visible with the entire car intact?

    :biglaugh: no , i was removing it, well trying to...it was held on by a phillp head screw.....and when i was trying to get a bite w/ the screw driver , and i was jiggling the tag w/ my other hand , it spilt right around the bolt :slap: so i just took it off around the bolt and fanilly got the bolt out. damn bolt was in there tight , i guess ford didnt want that tag to fall off
