The ONLY way he could get a "Kit Cobra" into the country was if it was titled and registered as a 65/ 66! Is it really a 65/66, heck no but that's what the government wants to meet their standards??
Fraud, pure and simple, could get a guy in big trouble. Any given State does NOT have to recognize another States title as a year 1965 when it becomes obvious the year is incorrect. California does that! People HAVE been arrested and charged.

I was trying to sell my car to a guy in Norway. He had to show the local DMV the car was built in 1986 or older. Texas was the first State it was registered in, in 1986. That met the Norway requirements, all though I backed out of the sale anyway. My Hawaii "1965 title" didn't mean squat to Norway.

France would be similiar, I suspect, no need for 1965, BUT, some year of build that is "old enough". Anything to "new", you either gotta fake it or pay the taxes.
