What about the JL8 cars..did they receive TT's and wait on parts and VIN's or were they tight?

No car ever received a trim tag and then waited on parts. The job of the scheduler was to make sure that all the parts for the car were in house before the car even was started.
JL8's appear to fit in as 'normal' production (as opposed to Abby Normal).
