Pete, I'm sure you know this, but empty gas tanks are much more dangerous than full tanks. If it was me, I'd document the sticker with pics and carefully remove it, then have it "preserved" by a firm that specializes in old documents.

Boy is that a new looking sheet? The one off my 45,000 mi 69 Baldwin car is yellowed and very fragile. All of the tank stickers I have seen are yellowed like mine. There was a layer of dirt that made it unreadable till I dusted it off. I have seen them go blank when you try to dust off the dirt to be able to read them.

Yours is the first one I have ever seen to be such a light color? Wonder why? Is it off a car that was not out in the weather ever! If you do get it off be sure to transfer it to a clean sheet of white cardboard and then put it in a plastic file folder cover to protect it.
