No buck Tags, but Found the Build Sheets - 1985 GT T-Top Hatch

[vdubn]

I got this car back in May, and its getting close to finishing, and I wanted to see if there is any way to get buck tags, or at least the information that the buck tags would normally give, with the build sheets? The buck tags were gone since I got the car, but the following pics are of the build sheets that were found by the previous owner.

Can anyone get the information from these?

Here is the VIN: 1FABP28M9FF196801

I can tell you most of the codes the buck tag should have. The codes that I do not know the meaning of are the ones that I would not be able to say yea or nah. Nobody makes repro buck tags for the Fox cars though.

I will need a single large image of the build sheet to proceed.

Can you message me your email, and I can send you the pics I have at full size (about 5mb each). Is it ok that its in two pieces? In order to get close enough to read, I had to do it in two pics.

Thanks!

Sent an email through this site. I would prefer one pic of the entire sheet.

Ok, will do

This is the best I can do. The alignment of the codes aren't quite right using the vbulletin tags though.

The codes in red may or may not have been on the tag. The "DF" and "ST" codes probably were on the tag. (So far, all 1985 Capri and Mustang tags had both.)

There was probably a four-digit rotations number on the end of the 2nd line of the tag (the four green questions marks) but there is no way to know what the number was. That number was used for the order of the cars going down the body & paint line at DAP, and it was not recorded by Ford. It may have been written in grease pencil somewhere on the bare chassis but no way to know for sure. That number is different than, and not related to, the rotations number on the build sheet.

And the door tag (weights are best guess according to database)...

Thanks so much, this is awesome! I also took a high-res picture of my door sticker, and even though its hard to read, I figured that you might be able to zoom in and see if it helped to fill out a couple fields that you weren't able to see, and see if it gave any more information (not that you haven't already given me a ton of data, I just thought if it was easy to do, it might be of help).

And a quick pic as well, although smaller:


Thanks again, I really appreciate it,
