If you built F5's before you should have no problem with A&C.
Biggest plus is no body work and paint. Your color of choice no metal flake color.
No panels to poprivet, interior shell is glassed to the body, any engine size up to 460. Standard rear end is Ford 9" solid axle with 4 link suspension.
Not sure if independent could be used, but I imagine you could.
I built mine back in 2001 and still get asked if it is paint at local car shows. You can click on the camera upper left.
There is a lot of information in this Forum.
Feel better and good luck with your next project.
