You're right, but with 20 years of hindsight, the kits serve two purposes: some of the panels interchange with stock steel parts which helps racers and people on a budget resurrecting a wrecked steel car. And because of the separate tube frame that can take a variety of engines & suspensions and with the body removed is simple to work on, real-racers including drag racers, liked the L & N kits. I've seen two running - one street licensed with a V-6 in back, and one with a 427 low-riser front-engine A/dragster that turned high 9's a decade ago. That's besides Dennis Quella's road-racer.
