Sacramento Vintage Ford was selling them at one time. I don't know if they are currently as I don't have their catalog in front of me right now.

Are you talking about those tags with the wire on them?

If so, when I was parts manager we ordered them directly from Ford as part of our stock order. They had a # assigned but I can't recollect what it was. If you know a good Ford parts person maybe ask if they have, or can get some for you. At that time they had "Motorcraft" printed on them.


They used to come in boxes of 1,000 tags, but that was 30-some years ago.

The ones still available thru Ford are a motorcraft tag. All I can remember right now is that it starts with "FPS"and a 4 digit number. THey still come in a box of 1000. The facing depot stocks them, available next day.

I have lots of original Ford parts tags made by Dennison Mfg. Co. Form 718. I found these in an old Ford dealer's parts dept years ago. They are new and never used.

Years ago I got some of the "Red & Cream" colored parts tags from JobLot in Queens, NY. You might find that they still have some. Their phone # is: 800-221-0172. Hope to see you in Florida sometime soon. Vic
