CASE 1298 FBX Steel properties

(OP)
We are dealing with a road tanker for compressed gas and the documentation indicates it was manufcatured in Texas in 1966.  The material used was steel noted as "Case 1298 FBX".  I understand that the FBX is firebox steel but does anyone know what the material properties are (tensile and chemical)?  Some fatigue cracks have been identified and a decision has to be made whether to scrap or repair.
