Cory 1940 Ford Update

Here’s a quick update on the car:

Eaton Detroit Spring got my springs reworked this week. On the rear, we did a new shorter main leaf with reversed eyes, and dearched the pack. The front got a new narrowed main leaf and the rest of the pack was dearched also. Yesterday, I narrowed the wishbone to go with the new narrower axle for the front. After that was done, I put the main leaf, a few supporting leafs with a block to make up for the rest of the leafs on the front suspension, and hung it under the car. I did the same for the rear, and put the car down on the ground with the new tires. It’s blocked up at where ride height should be in the photos.

I picked up a Columbia rear end that ironically came out of a ’40 tudor sedan. While I wait for that to arrive from California, I’m going to get the front suspension finished up with the roll bar and shock mounts.
