Blank Bucktag

[SquirrelRPJ]

I came across a blank silver metallic bucktag on my car, and someone e-mailed me asking about the tag.. he said that the tag is blank, and is made to match the paint on the car so the assembly knows what color the car is supposed to be painted.

Does anyone else know about this, or has anyone found one on their Terminator?

No, this tag was the same color as the paint...and this person said they put tags on the cars to match the paint.

it's totally blank - it's just painted competition orange on both sides. it was attached by some bailing some wire up near the radiator area as i recall.

but even at dap, they had better ways to know which color to paint a car than some small tag attached to it lol.

I like the little jab at DAP in this post. Not like the place was 100 years old or something.

When new, my car had a {tink}{tink}{tink} sound as I slowly drove down the road. When I found and removed that tag, the {think} went away.

Years ago, someone from Ford chimed in about the tag, but I'm old, and don't remember so good. CRS.

Where was this tag located on the car? Both of mine have a single buck tag stapled to the radiator core support just below the drivers side headlight socket. They're not blank and contain important information for the initial assembly of each car. The buck tag isn't 'all inclusive', though. It just provides general information in setting up the body for what the car is to eventually be.

Where there always is information on everything Terminator, and in this case, the paint and buck tags:

The actual buck tag behind the driver's side headlight:
