[Tigers] Yearly Confusion

[drmayf]

Jeff, mine also. Born in October 1964, sold and titled in 1966 in 
Ventura, Ca.  It is a 1966 according to them. Mine was also titled as a 
Rootes Roadster.. subesequent moves to other states had that 
corrected.   Reckon our cars are littermates? ....1136 is mine...
