Mocking Up the Coupe

Finally a chance to snap a decent shot of my 1940 Dodge Coupe. I’ve been bolting parts together randomly, just to see what it looks like and what I need.

The front frame is constructed of 2×3 tubing C-clamped to the old frame section, resting upon a 1948 Ford I-beam axle. Not permanent by any means. I’m probably going to be using a Dodge Dakota front frame section, just because so many other hot rodder’s good words. I’d prefer to use a old original frame, but finding one would be next to impossible.
