Ok first off...  no, its not a six pack.  ;)

Heres what my tag looks like decoded.  Looks pretty average I guess.  Nothing too special that I can see really, other than that fact that its a big block car.  Must be one of the earlier built 73s too.  When did they go into production?  Anyone know why the decoder didnt recognize my engine code?
