Having owned a few replica's along the way and attended numerous cruise in's and car shows not once has somebody asked to see the title... If your selling it and show them the title the inevitable question will be, "So when was it built, really?" Kind of deflating at the point I think.
In Washington, the advantage of being titled as a 1965:
1. No emission testing
2. Can be permanently registered - no annual fees or tabs
3. Can use restoration plates - no front plate requirement
I don't know about you but those are very important items to me
Oh, and at cruise ins, I always get comments on the 1965 license plate on my Cobra. I have "year of manufacture" plates on my other 2 cars as well.
