I've purchased a big block 390FE and a Ford Top loader. The Engine will be rebuilt in the next 6 months. I've started, going to send that deposit very soon, and I have sold my Mustang ,because I was told I couldn't have this toy unless I got rid of the other. It's what it is.

What motivates you to a kit? If you are doing it because you're a skilled fabricator and love "some assembly required" and have the tools then by all means have at it. If you are doing it because you think you can save money over buying a used sorted out car or a roller and just adding power train you might want to reconsider. Assembling a "kit" of this magnitude will take tools you probably don't have, can't rent, and will use only once, and the most notable being a lift that makes things much easier and saves time.
In the time it will take you to acquire and build a kit to finish things happen, and your interest will quite possibly wane. If you bought a used already sorted out car you'd have at least a year's worth of enjoyment out of it before the kit arrives.
Good luck no matter what you choose.
