Here's Doctor Cranky's Lab-RAT-ory TOP TEN LIST OF CAR KITS. This is a very personal list based on the kits that I have built time and again and enjoyed. Also, note that this is a list of American Cars and kit manufacturers only. This also in no way is meant to put down any kit manufacturers (current or defunct). My choices are based on kit quality, ease of build, the looks of the finish product, etc.

Well,Dr. V,I don't see a stinker in the bunch-I'm more a Sedan Delivery than Aerosedan and I've yet to actually ever build an AMT '66 Chevy II (Nova),though I have one in stash to replicate a late cousin's '67 from back in the day (late 80's-early 90's). Good choices,my friend,and most of em are in my stash (or on the bench once again in the case of the '56 Chebby and '49 Merc kits :p ).
