      I'm pretty sure Tom Farrington (Tommycomfort) has the kit on his car.

      I used the frame kit but not the body tub kit. Frame kit was very well manufactured and the instructions were pretty good. Biggest thing I found was if you can bolt the frame down do so. If you cannot/don't want to drill into your floor be sure to put as much weight on the back as you can to keep it from moving around. Also, use nice big tubing to X the frame as described in the instructions. I used a little bit too thin of supports and had to fight it some. I chose to not use the coil over cross member that they supplied and I trimmed my stock mounts to fit. That took extra time but I'm super happy with the decision. The cross member they supplied would have hit my exhaust and other stuff. You can see pics if you go to my Cutlass build thread. I did the mini tub last January, just to give you reference to help you find the posts quicker.

      I also just noticed you also have a 65 BOP. I found that there were some differences in the templates that they provided vs the Olds frame. I worked through them so it wasn't that big of a deal. Just a heads up.

      I bought a pair last spring for my 65 gto but haven't installed them yet.I can say that their a heavy gauge and stamping is high quality.The install is a big job and I have to split mine and make them another couple of inches wider.I certainly have no regrets buying them.

      What do you mean you have to split them?
