This has to be by far the worst job I have ever seen someone do as far as mounting a trim tag.

Theres probably a rivet in the rag joint
That is hysterical. Ranks right up there with the restamped "DZ" engine stamped V0229DZ. Hint: 1969 was not a leap year.

Look like header or U joint bolts.

I think those are the special Ronco ARP Grade 12 trim tag bolts that come in a kit with a Ford "Caution Fan" sticker.
Shop now, operatiors are standing by!
Mastercharge and Visa accepted.
Makes a great Christmas gift!

Don't knock the caution fan stickers. Autorama Houston had it's share(on some awesome restorations). Don't forget the upside down inside out cowl seals.

Tag looks good to me. Probably was until they drill big holes thru it.....

It seems to be nice.
Mastercharge and Visa accepted? I could not understand this one.

I personally would've used a nail gun to hang my cowl tag! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/laugh.gif

How about this one? This is what I found when I opened the hood on my '70 mustang. It's a combo horn ground / trim tag holder! http://www.yenko.net/attachments/usergals/2013/02/full-13224-2921-70stangtrimtag.jpg

If you are an old guy like me, than you remember that back in the 1960s and 1970s, any time they had one of those cheesy Ronco TV commercials for any useless item like the "Ginsu Knife Collection", "Mr. Microphone", or the "Veg-O-Matic" they always ended the commercial with the phrase: "Mastercharge and Visa accepted, Makes a Great Holiday Gift".
RONCO was Ron Popeil's company. He was the first, direct marketing guru and made some really memorable items that nobody needed but everybody bought. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Popeil
I believe he now makes the Ronco TrimTag Mount-alyzer 5000 which not only mounts your trim tag but stamps out a brand new one every time the hood is opened. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif

On the mustang, that is a buck tag. But they are usually painted black and are usually mounted lower with one screw.
