If you go with Goldberg or Great Planes you can't go wrong. Both companies have excellent kits, manuals and instructions.

Sig would be my next vote, but some of their kits have not been updated since the 60's and if you don't know which is which, you could find yourself with a kit that is for much more advanced builders.

Also look into Skyshark kits. I have no experience with them, but I have heard excellent things.
