Agree, it's probably a coin flip, and if it's just down to these two, I'd go with with one titled in a way that you can cope with the registration and inspection process in CA or whatever state you keep it.

In the majority of states, a 65-66 Ford title (or whatever, year is the factor) is an ADVANTAGE, because it allows you to register it as "historic or antique" and avoids safety and emissions inspections. Don't know about CA, but it could make it more attractive for resale.
