    '65 only, I believe.
    '66 911 - Light Ivory | Early '66 with Solex Carbs
    '72 911T - Aubergine originally | now Bahia Red | "S" options | 2.2S P&C's

    According to Dr. B. Johnson ("The 911 & 912 Porsche - A restorer's guide to authenticity"):
    "The first cars produced featured a mushroom shift knob, as used on the 356B and 356C models. By the 1966 model year a round topped shift knob appeared."
    '66 911 - Light Ivory | Early '66 with Solex Carbs
    '72 911T - Aubergine originally | now Bahia Red | "S" options | 2.2S P&C's

    if my information is correct, the mushroom shaped knob with the dimple is correct for the '65 911, as well as the later 356s.
