Depends what you want to do with it, really. Personally I find the CTC-11 the easiest and most serviceable of the early color RCAs....they don't have crammed chassis and jumper issues like the 15 and up, and picture tubes are much more available.
A 16 isn't a bad set though, especially for free!! Since nobody's rebuilding FJPs right now, your best bet is to test that one and see if it just needs cataract surgery (common) or if you need a replacement tube. Good testing FJPs were selling at the ETF Museum for around $150 IIRC.
