I have what I thought was a 1969 CJ5 and today I had a few doubts. My Serial number is as follows

8305 A205595

made in toledo OHIO. I cant seem to find any hard evidence.

We need photos!
 
It very well could be a 1969.
I can say it is earlier than 1971 because it has wipers on the top of the windshield; no door hinges.
If it was earlier than 1965 it would have a cutout on the passenger side of the hood. This was used to add a snorkel.
It looks like it is anywhere between 1965 and 1970 but I don't see anything to pin it down to 1969.

In about 1970 a law was passed saying the gas tank could not be in the passenger compartment. Your jeep came before that. It is really looking like it could be a 1969.

As for the serial number: check out this link: http://www.earlycj5.com/zoomer/Vehicle_Indentification.pdf
There is some info about the serial numbers there but once again I didn't see anything that could pin down your year.
I still say 1969 is very believable.
