cwilson, I know what you mean!  I just can't understand why someone would go to the bother to register their replica as a 1965 Cobra, who you think your going to fool with that one?  
 
But I've learned how important that 'year' thing is in some states.  I would certainly never commit fraud in achieving a 1965 'title', but it's a good thing for some folks.
 
Makes zero difference in Hawaii one way or the other...
