well in the 3-link thread i talked about what a P.I.T.A. it is trying to find a structurally solid starting point in an early mustang. a rigid frame would be ideal, BUT.... (always a "but") this would be great for a "new" project.... not really ideal for somebody(like myself) trying to make a semi finished car better. its not that i mind the fab work accociated with the full frame install..... its the part where everything that works in the car now needs to be redone....like all the interior, the allready done bodywork (cut the floor out of a car and bolt it down to a rigid frame and tell me its still almost ready for paint...i think not)

like i said...i think its great for a new project. if the suspension "works" and you can fit decent wheel/tire combo under it...then i think it would sell(i personally wouldnt buy one... for the reasons stated above unless of coarse you wanted to whip one out for a 65 mustang to park in your booth at sema next year )
