What's the VIN? You can decode the year from that.

Yes, it's registered as something, but the VIN tells you the actual year.

Re: 1966 LWB 4x4 K....but its a 1967....
New model year vehicles often become available in the later part of the preceding calendar year --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_year#USA
So it was possible to purchase a 1967 model year vehicle in the later part of the 1966 calendar year. And it wasn't uncommon for the person typing up the original title / registration papers to accidentally enter the current calendar year instead of the vehicle's model year. Like jayoldschool said ... go by the VIN for the model year. |
