I'm going through this exact scenario right now.

I've got a WA title, that describes my 2006 Superformance as a "2006 KITV", and has "1965 Shelby" as a remark of some sort. I'm going for a "Custom" registration, and this is what I had to bring to the tax office:

1) Insurance card states "2006 Superformance MkIII S/C, Replica: 1965 Shelby Cobra".

2) Form VTR-852 plus ASE mechanic cert sheet.

3) TX safety inspection receipt. This is new, as the Assembled Vehicle Manual says you need a VI-30 (green sheet) for a previously titled vehicle out-of-state. However, with the new "one sticker" inspection program, this form no longer exists. I had to convince the inspector to do a "safety only" inspection, skipping emissions, because that's what the county tax office supervisor said I should do!

4) Certified weight certificate. I'm not sure if I needed this or not, but the tax office supervisor made a copy of it just in case.

5) Three photos of vehicle, including front, side and back.

6) One photo of original 1965 Shelby Cobra.

7) WA title

8) Bill of Sale

9) And finally, Application for Texas Title, Form 130-U.

And, oh yeah, 6.25% tax, plus various nickel-and-dime fees.

I'll know in a couple of weeks if this goes through...
