Like Jamo said, it all depends on what yo use for suspension components, brakes, wheels, and tires.
So many guys spend so much money on the biggest, baddest engine and consider handling as an afterthought. Since many kits use '74 - '78 Mustang II front ends, and late '79 - up rear ends (4 bolt wheels - drum brakes) ; the car has the street manners of a AA Fueler, and the handling of a logging truck. It's easy to spot these. They're on eBay, with less than 2,000 miles, and priced very low.
Done right; a little conservative on the engine, and the "Big Bucks" spent on cooling system and suspension, wheels, and tires; these cars handle beautifully! Comfortable enough for over the road trips, and corner like roller coasters.
The crime of it all, is most kit manufacturers don't tell you how to put good suspensions in these things, or where to get the components from. Hang out here, and ask, and we'll tell you how to build it, and where to get the components from so it will handle, and your car won't wind up on eBay cheap.
My CR? I couldn't ask for a better handling car! Every time I get behind the wheel, fire up the engine, and back it out of the garage, I think this is car Heaven.
If you start looking at a Mustang suspension car, I'll tell you what I put in mine to make it handle so well.
