Use whichever one you prefer. For the most part, a film camera is just a light-tight box. The quality of the pictures are determined by the film used (which is the same on either body), the lens used (which is the same on either body), and the brain used (which is the same on either body, and by far the most important factor).
Actually, if you want to manually focus, the older camera's probably better since the newer one (barring modifications to the standard base configuration of each of your cameras, according to a quick google search) has a focusing screen that's more autofocus-oriented. I.e., no split-screen rangefinder in the middle, which I find essential when I'm manually focusing. I pretty much never use manual focus mode on my Canon autofocus models unless I'm focusing on infinity or have a really long time to work (i.e., focusing on my girlfriends' breasts, which is always a pleasure and something one should take their time on).
Also, a lot of autofocus screens are just plain not designed for manual focus less than f/2.5 or so, so if you're trying to use it to manually focus a lens that's faster than that, you might want to stop it down to at least f/2.8.
