trularin,

I am currently shopping. It is extremely tough to sort out all the propaganda. I have looked at many and considered a few. Here are my thoughts on three of them that I am considering...

Cutting Edge Replicas....Very nicely detailed, well built, comes with just about everything, but more money

Unique....deluxe pallet kit just as complete as Cutting Edge's but less money....built good, but not as good as the Cuting Edge

Antique and Collectibles....this is my budget choice if I want to build this thing $5,000 at a time

I will be buying the Shelby Aluminum 427 and Alum Heads. She is going to be a roller and I am still wavering on Fuel Injection or Carb. Trans will either be a toploader or Richmond Gear. Not sure if the Tremec is sturdy enough.

Now I see that you have a lonestar, which admittedly I haven't thoroughly checked out. They don't have any pricing on the web and I haven't requested any info....yet. I am still investigating and will probably be making a spring purchase. The whole purpose of my original post here was to expose myself to the different cars and talk with people who have put them together...thus helping me make a decision.

The one thing I know for sure is that I am not interested in a 5.0 donor kit.

So, what is "the dark side"?
