What you're showing in the pics is a 39 Merc . . . is this "firewall forward" situation the same in the 41 - 48 Mercs as compared to Fords? Longer fenders, longer hoods, etc?
I have a 40 Merc coupe - so this stuff interests me!

The '39 and '40 Mercs used a different body than the than the '39-'40 Fords, The Merc has a wider body. It's wider by about 4". The frame is also different.
