Then again, I replaced the firewall and on the fords the toe boards are wood so that could have been part of it. I hope you can give that ride! My Aunt wanted a ride in the 40 before she passed away but unfortunately she passed away and it didn't happen. My wife is going on a trip during spring break so I think I will bring the 40 home and hit it for a good week and see how close I can get it.
