My guess is, you're right. Even the earliest 427 Cobras sold didn't make it into customers' hands until the fall of '65, and most were labeled right on the Shelby American invoice as a "1966 Cobra." And those that weren't would likely have been titled as 1966s because that's how car dealers perceived them.
