Replacing 1940 cowl

Has anybody ever replaced a complete cowl and firewall on a 1940 Ford Deluxe.My cowl is bad and I have a complete cowl firewall that is in great shape.Any suggestion or thoughts on how to do this.

 

Cut the old one out...Fit and weld the good one in. Is this a serious question?

 

Fit the doors the best you can then add braceing inside the body, kinda like when you chop a car. This will help hold things in place when you cut the bad parts off. Hope this helps.

 

this is realitively easy if the body is mounted on a frame

 

Where are you at in Indiana?

 

drill out the spot welds and take it out. put the other one in and weld it up

 

I second this......main thing to concentrate on will be your door gaps and fit.
