Just make sure you keep a copy of your old California registration for the
next owner too so he can prove to the DMV they were assigned to the car.

Richard,
I don't know how Kentucky is, but as far as California (and IL) go, it doesn't
seem to matter where the car resides, as long as CA gets the registration fees.
I have two vintage original CA cars the I brought when moving to IL in 1982.
They are still registered in CA with my IL address shown on the registration.
I have never had any problem with any local law enforcement regarding having
them registered in CA, while using them in the Midwest.
The only issue that ever came up was with auto insurance. It seems that
federal law requires that a policy be written per the state requirements for
the state where the car is registered, not where the owner lives or garages the
auto. So, if you can use a friend's address as your CA "address" for purposes
of the policy, but have any related insurance mail sent to your KY address, you
should be fine, as far as my experience goes.
