If money is an issue - don't start either one of them.
If rust repair is an issue - don't start either one of them.
If getting your "investment" back is an issue - don't start either one of them.
If I was going to do ONE - it'd be the '65 - and I'd drop a crate LS3 motor in it like Jason Rushforth did in his. Some decent stance - simple almost stock looking interior - a great set of wheels.... and you'd have a nice car. Not sure what the suspension platform is - but I'd keep that simple but upgraded... Tubular A arms - coil overs - triangulated 4 link - beefy reared... nice set of wildwood brakes (6's and 4's)... Single stage urethane paint job... a sleeper color. 60's cream or biege... or bronze color... a "grandmas" color.
When you get all done you should be right around 125 grand in a car worth about 30....
