I have owned this 1940 Dodge Business Coupe for 15+ years. Plans are a new frame  with welder series coil over mustang II and triangulated four link.

 Geez, thanks Carl once again, for makin' the pics "bigger". Like clicking on them wouldn't work.

How about you just post a "How to" , and let everyone know how to do it. Save you lot's of work.

 Yes, there is, once you have uploaded the pics, go to the bottom of the page. The list of your images will be there.

Put your cursor in the message and click where you would like the image inserted, go to the bottom of page and click the [insert] box, next to the image you want.

Once the image is large and in the message box, I go back and click in the [remove] box, this way it'll remove the small images at the bottom.

By the way, I have the exact same front end set up in my '38, it looks great, but I have yet to try it out.

Your progress is looking great.
