Obviously, the number you are dealing with is not a Ford issued VIN.
If it is an up to date California title, no inspection is required to transfer within California however, I would want to see the frame number and want the paperwork to reflect that number because there may be a problem if the car is later sold out of state and I would not want to have to deal with that.
It is the sellers responsibility to get the paperwork in order.

The next problem you would have with not being able to tie the title/registration to a number on the car would be if you were in an accident. The police might impound the car since you couldn't show it was yours. Then the insurance company would deny your claim since you couldn't prove the mangled wreck was the one they insured.
