Does the registration actually say it is a 64? Where I live, DMV will have "Year Registered" on the title. If this 65 model is an early built car that was build before the end of 64 and licensed before Jan1,65, the title will reflect that it was registered at the end of 64.
Notice that our titles say "year registered", not "model year".

Dmv could of typed in the wrong year, I have a 66 title that is missing a production number, and says coupe instead of convertible. I think this happens more then people think.
Was the car sold to you as a 64 or 65?

Although it was built in December of 64, it is a 65 model year Elky. Get the DMV or whatever its called to fix the error.

Sounds like a possible clairical error on th DMVs part. Perhaps someone put a 64 clip on it and is actually a 65 car?
