The "So number" on the tag will be stamped into the radiator core support. The number on the core support starts with a digit that describes the manufacturing plant, and then it continues with the SO#. On my 64 Dart the number is on top of the core support, under what was once the coolant information sticker. On my 63 330 (b-body), its on the side of the core support that faces the engine bay (driver's side), as it is on my 66 Coronet. if this guy did a full restoration, he ought to be familiar with number. If he applied so much paint that its not readable and he isn't happy sanding the paint down to be able to read the number, hopefully he can produce some pre-paint process pictures that would convince you that the fender tag matches the car. Also, be aware that fender tag are reproduced, sometimes with incorrect data....
