Sep 68 build date looks good to me early car. Engine codes T0904JF Sept 4th JF shows it as a 396/350 HP with either a 3 or 4 speed (High Perf) The stampings look pretty clear and since I dont have many to compare them to, maybe LV/Charley/DjD or one of the others here can help out there

Funny you said that, and as a plumber myself, One time, in a pinch I used a couple nipples in the heater hoses. At least I used Chrome ones...LOL..

Joe, you of all people should recognise the COPO 45^ Elbow when you see one .. Probably because the Yenko crest is on the bottom side out of visual on the pic that threw you off.. I wonder if he's got the documentation for that.

looks like he spliced the heater hose into the pump by-pass hose. never saw that before

Did everybody see this part on the L-34's Ebay page? According to the Seller and NADA, the car is worth (Retail Value $46,170.00), but has the reserve price set at a lower amount.

Correct the body number on the trim tag IS NOT part of the VIN. GM assigns the VIN and Fisher Body assigns the body number on the trim tag. The partial VINs on the engine/tranny and the 2 on the firewall and under the cowl vent panel should be 19N506517 which should match the last half of the VIN plate that is on the dash

If the vin# on the engine stamp pad, or in some cases down by the oil filter (rough casting) matches the car vin# located under the windshield, it "could" be an SS 396 (L34).
Other areas would have to be considered like rear multileafs, correct engine mounts (taller one on driver's side), big-block transmission crossmember, 3/8" fuel line, matching vin# on tranny, etc, in order for it to have a chance of being an SS.
An RS it is not. There are no back-up lights and the car has the standard tailights. The car does have the correct grill, but the areas around the hide-a-way headlights are not painted to match the color of the car, in this case Daytona Yellow - 76.
Looks like an aftermarket hide-a-way headlight/grill combination. Seems funny to paint an entire car, without painting around the grill and headlight doors.
