You can usually move over the filler neck boot and with a flash light see if there are any remains of the tank sticker.

Here's the location of the sticker on my 71.

Alan

PS: If you see yours don't be tempted to try and get it out without dropping the tank. The stickers are incredibly fragile after all these years.
