Stop in for a cup of coffee
I may be wrong but back in the day the NEW cars came out in September. So you could get a 1975 Dart as early as September 1974. Threew the years and several title changes most didn't notice that they had a 1975 model titled as a 1974. Just a theory. I have a couple bikes in the same catagory but I go by the Vin number on the frame.
