I have seen 5A dated bases painted blue.  Although, gold is the commonly accepted color for '65 model year cars.

I have seen that as well, I've seen the blue 5A bases on 66's until the 6A bases started showing up. IMO this fits the scenario that the 5A base supply lasted well into 66 production then smaller batches were made.

Still have the original base on my 66 GT350, March 29, 66 scheduled SJ build date, the base is dated 6C.
