Yes simple kits are okay, but I really wanted to try to replicate my late brother-in-law's 63 Galaxie he had in the 70's. He jacked it up with those silly shackles, and cut the exhausts off and added Cherry Bombs and straight pipes. I bought the kit to try to do that, but with molded-in exhausts and axle it was impossible. Some folks told me to use the Starliner kit, but they didn't match up well so I wound up making the Galaxie a custom, and building the Starliner separately. I might try that again but expect to do more fabrication than my original plan.
