I've already gone to the DMV and turned in the Bill of Sale and the title that I received from the seller, which was 13 yrs old.
All went fine at the DMV and just last week I received a newly issued title with my name on it. Still showing it is a 66 C-code.

The problem is not just when you sell either. Most states require a VIN verification if you move to another state.

In most states, the title VIN is what they go by. Parts for 64-66 were interchangable, so you can't go by any of those part numbers.

ok, The grille is a 65, the gas cap is a 65, and the side chrome is a 65. Most of the stuff is for a 65, except for the gauge cluster..... ut oh. Something is very screwy.

If I remember right there is a VIN stamped on the apron under the passenger fender. You have to take the fender off to see it. You might be able to see it from the wheel well but you would have to read it backwards. There is a good chance the apron was replaced with a used one. The problem is the door tag VIN is not a legal VIN. It even says "not for title or registration" on the tag. A good body man would be able to tell if the apron was replaced.
Do you know where the location is under the passenger side?
I just looked under mine, but there was so much crud caked on that I don't know where to begin scraping it off to find it.
Thanks,
Kris

I thought the grille was a 66.
I looked up a picture of a 65 and it was more honeycomb shaped.

Idk, I hear you have to remove the fender to see it. Then again, the fender could have been replaced too.I've been thinking. Most of the stuff on the car is 65 stuff. Except for the guage cluster. It'll be hard to find out, since the parts are interchangeble, like Soaring said.

Oh, you know. you are right. If that picture of your car, it didn't quite look like one, but it is. Sorry. WE still have to wonder about the side trim, and gas cap. Also, where is your horse and corral for your grille?

Do we have a photo of the gauge cluster? From memory aren't the 65 GT and Pony gauge clusters the same as 66 ones? the only difference being the "eyebrow" chrome at the top of the cluster?

yes, The 65 GT clusters were the same as 66s, but that car isn't a GT. I dont think that they installed the 5 guage clusters with pony interior, but i could be wrong.
