While we're on the subject of springs and such, I have one shot of a nearly completed right side suspension.

Brian,
FWIW my current springs in my car are original 78 Mercury Zephyr 4 cyl springs from a previous car with over 100,000 miles that I had a 351 C in. Those same springs have been in my Mustang since 1998.
As long as your springs have not been heated I cannot image them being a problem.
There is nothing better than the sense of accomplishment on you building your own car, it may not be cheaper, but you will know every nut bolt and wire in the car.
Think about adding front tie downs into the front crossmember. It will make loading and unloading the car faster and more secure too!
Sean
