Re: missing body tag
It isn't really a problem. You just won't have any of the information that would normally be on the tag like original paint, interior and other options shown on the tag. Nothing you can do about that unless you have a picture of the original tag.
All this is assuming you are using the correct term and you aren't talking about the VIN.
