Really enjoying watching your progress! Yours is a 42 Deluxe Sedan coupe (rear seat)? I would've liked to blown mine apart and done a total restoration like you are doing but I didn't have the room or honestly the skill level. My 42 was at Chris's (sugarmaker) so long that he may have listed me as a dependent on his income tax. I also have 4 other antique cars and 3 antique tractors that keep me busy along with a wife that balances the checkbook every couple of days. When you replaced the rear spring did you use a spring spreader or a port a power. If would be great if you could describe the procedure as I need to replace my 48's rear spring.
