How?

I suspect it is partly related to the origin of the car - it was originally sold/titled/licensed in Mexico so came with a title that probably also was for a 1965 Shelby. I think they are obliged to propagate it.

There was no SB100 documentation on the car either. I think it was underway by then.

I too wondered how this could have been done, but it was.

Whether or not the title is viewed by you as "proper" it was issued by the state of CA and was recognized by the State of Colorado.
Tony, you really need to check your attitude at the door.

The date that I posted (11/02/2007) is when the first 2 criminal cases were filed by the AG. I have no idea when the actual law, or a law, was enacted. But whether your old CSX got through the system or not, and the Mexican origin helped or not, CA considers it illegal since it CLEARLY WAS NOT BUILT IN 1965.

And also completely irrelevant to the discussion of replica, since titles are handled differently in all 50 states. But if you love a tangent, please proceed. Whatever makes you warm and fuzzy and gets you to sleep each night.
