Default 75 Tank Sticker Question

Where is the tank sticker on a 75 convertible? Is it on the tank itself or on the tank cover?

Thanks

I heard someone say they could see their sticker thru the gas tank filler hole. I guess you need to remove the rubber sleeve just inside the door.

And mine was on the tank.

Guess it depends on what the guy on the line had for breakfast that day.

Steve...is your 75 an original FE7 car? Can you post an image of your tank sticker? I'm curious to see how the rear stabilizer is referenced...thanks.

Attached is a pic (kinda big but you get to see the sheet in detail an all the RPO codes). Interesting that the car has all the comfort options (leather, shoulder belts, two tops (vinyl hardtop, defroster) but no A/C (presumably because it was delivered to Anchorage). Then we have the FE7 suspension but the base motor and tranny.



Of course, she is now a Not-Correctly Restored Shark, but a lot more fun than with the stock 165 HP.

Interesting! But what no engine heater? They get em in Canada.

It shows what looks like a C05 (folding top), Aux top (C07) and roof cover (C08). The C05 is the base top for a convertible but than the buyer ordered both a hard top and a vinyl hard top! It also shows the color of the top...black (19M) so it actually came with three tops! Your FE7 code is same as in later years.

The quality is marginal but you can make out many of the codes. What's missing is the box format and its pre-printed contents that includes a box number and description.

Something else I should point out but rather do it offline. Drop me an email and I'll explain. Otherwise nice documentation for your non-ncrs. I like the color.
