It does not (cannot) meet smog regulations.

The car is sold and the buyer lives in CA.

What are the CA requirements for registration of this car?

Useing the information that you stated, this is what will probably happen, you have a title that says 1964 Shelby Replica, you will leave the CA DMV with a registration that reads, Year 1964, make Shelby replica, model (i don't know maybe 2 door), because the year is 1964 it is exempt from smog, Is this really what the car is? no, so you run the risk of driving a car with a fraudulant title.
