Here's a couple I recently finished, first, a 34 Ford MK kit mostly box stock except for the cage and shortened the rear over hang a little. Second, another MK kit, 36 Chevy but I shortened the frame, scratched the cage, headers, added aftermarket fuel cell, coilovers up front, homeade rear shocks and decals.    |

Nice modifieds. I have yet to try one of those kits. You did a great job on both.

Thanks for the comments, Bobby. The kit will make a good looking build but , IMHO, the wheel base is too long, 105"-107" is about right, The fuel cell can't be hangin' out the back and they give you leaf springs and coil overs for the back, it should be one or the other.
, and the motor needs to be moved back a few inches, too. The chassis works well under Nova, Falcon, etc bodies with a few mods, I also like to use the new tool 57 Chevy chassis for these cars, too.
