You'll need to see what kind of top the '65 has.  If it has the kind that
bolts on the front from the inside, yes.  If from the outside, no.   IIRC
'65 was the changeover period.

The difference normally is in whether the windshield is fold down or not,
but I think someone said that there are some oddities during the changeover
period.
