I don't want to show my ignorance, but I've never let that stop me before, the picture I see matches the aim pic?

How about Chick's near perfect '68?

Was the owner told it had been returned, or is it likely still with Pirkle Jr?I don't know Pirkle other than talking on phone a out this 814. Seemed to be a very straight forward nice guy. I'm not sure if it's a business address or a home address. One of the phones that has the recording says something class cars.
Don't know anything about Pirkle, but if he operates out of a business address rather than his home, for starters I'd search for a neighbouring business and ask the owner if he's been seen lately, at least you'd know if he's there.
I think this is a photo of your NBR cowl tag from the facebook group. I saw you said you would have posted it, if you had time to resize. I just saw it, and thought I could help with photo.
Thought all the known NBR tags were from the 09A timeframe, so was the scheduled build week also a typo?

'NBR' tags are in the 09A time frame but were mis-stamped.
Fisher Body issued the tag when the production order was released to build the body for a specific dealer order. Fisher skipped some weeks; the tag date has a casual relationship to when the car was final-assembled by Chevrolet. For example, some 02D bodies were final-assembled mid-March '69. The Chevy schedule bank shuffled bodies after VIN assignment; cars were not build in body tag date or VIN order. Not unusual to see a D body tag with a lower VIN than a C date.
