I was told the shell is a 65 deluxe, however it has a floor starter. I found the number 2264 stamped into the bulkhead but no id plate. Any help would really be appreciated.

if it has a floor starter and windup windows, check the floor where the gearshift hole is. If it has a hole for a remote gearchange next to the floor starter, it is probably hacked, and there should be a proper one at the front of the footwell that may be covered. Confused yet
If all of the above is true, you may have a Morris Mini Minor shell, produced 1965, 66. They were a "povo pack" for government agencies that only had an 850cc engine and the bare minimum of trim. It may also have the pressed aluminium grill, rather than the slats of the deluxe and cooper s. Mine is apparently a 1966 model, and the body number is 1079, so the sequence looks a bit funny if yours is one of those.
