hi there.....i have a mate who has a 1969 's' code 390 mach 1 and has located the 'Body Buck Tag' on the front left radiator support. I'd like to help him decode his car from this tag but i don't know much about them.....are there any particular sites i could visit for this info ? I realise this thread is not much to do with 'Shelby's but your help would really be appreciated. cheers oh yeah......it reads..... 63c T 322 3D AC TW PB ST VG SPD RM FDS RAC H-2
I would suggest buying Kevin Marti's book, By the Numbers. Make sure you read the acknowledgements. I will take a shot at the ones I know and we can fill in the others as we go or when I grab my copy. 63 C is a Mach 1 T is the paint code for Red 322 is a rotation number AC is air conditioning PB is power brakes FDS is fold down seat TW tilt wheel VG visibilty group RM rocker moldings ST Stereo (AM 8 track) RAC racing mirrors SPD and 3 D ? H-2 Inspector stamping I looked here: http://www.ponysite.de/fmcog/to_alt/bbtd.htm But Kevin's book will be more accurate.
My apologies, Kevin's book is called The Mustang and Cougar Tag book. You should buy both books. 3D is an inspector stamp SPD is speed control
