What do you think the 2nd tag means on my chicken?

I've posted this before, but new info always comes to light.  I have a second tag on my chicken.  It reads:    special mask
          special order
My car is 426 build car and is r4/black bench 4spd coupe.  There are traces of red on the tag and you can tell the edge has been under the other tag for a long long time.  The car was being used as a parts car, so it wasn't like the guy was fixing it up and added it to it.  He didn't even know it was a six pack car.  Anyways, what are your thoughts?  Maybe it is just a fluke.  By the way, I will probably repaint it in R4 instead of the silver I want.  I figure no matter how nice I make it, it would still be a chicken, and I am a bee guy.  Plus I would have no attatchment to it in red...easier for me to send it down the road.  The down side is, now I have no desire to get crackin' on it either.  The old catch 22.

Does it by chance have the A01 Light Package option................................. Roll Eyes I mean R4, 4-speed, bench seat, coupe, SPECIAL ORDER, SPECIAL MASK sounds almost like a media or car show display type vehicle IMO. What other options; power steering, decor bright b-pillar trim.......... Wink

I think at one time I had an ex sherrif's car and it also has those same tags on it.
I believe I still have the tags so I'll look and see for sure.
My 2 cents is something with the paint.

Great question Gary. I've never seen a special mask special order tag on an A12. It sounds to be an original part of the car. I agree with Mike that it was probably used for a special purpose, could have been a dealer, media or even something to take to the local shopping mall for display.
With the extra tag on the car, I would lean toward putting back to the codes that are on the tag if you are looking for maximum resale value.
