Yeah, a photo from a '69 would help and I don't think they changed too much in a year. (I don't know what the heck I was reading before  duh) MikeR

On my 68' Coronet it's located on the fender on the passenger side just forward of the washer bottle. It was a June 26 build date if that makes any difference.
 mine is same.

" I don't think they changed too much in a year." "Famous last words"    Do we know if being a hemi makes a difference on placement between 1968/1969? My SPD is 5/28/69

Yeah, I'm eating those words now eh? and yikes I never thought about it being on the passenger's side  and what happens with a big block with A/C doesn't the metal tube run down the fender by the fender tag but I "think" I've seen the emission label there on a late December '68 built '69 Super Bee.......gota go check a photo, back later after I finish eating more words

68's are in front of the washer bottle and 69's are behind the fender tag, engine dosen't make a difference.

This is starting to make more sense as I just found a photo a '68 Satellite from my archives that has it on the passenger's side. I think the larger fender mounting "pad" on the '69 models (see '69 above) would cover part of it if it was on the passenger's side, maybe that was the reason for the move? 
(this is a '68 "G" St. Louis Satl.)

Well at least on the Plymouth B-bodies it is much larger, the Dodge fender/rad support mounting "pad" is smaller than the Plymouth. Here is a '69 RR pad that you can see it covers more of the area where the label on the '68's was.

Any photos of any '68 B-body "G" St. Louis assembled cars with the original emission label still in the original placement?
