    Does anyone here know if a 40 ford frame will swap with a 46 frame? Both are 2 dr sedans. JK

    No, the 40 style frame will swap bewteen 1935-40 Ford, along with 1941 pick-up. For the 46, you need a 42-48 frame, a 41 passenger frame may work too, but I think there are a few unique things for that year.

    Thanks for the info. I'm going to put a Jag frt under my 46 and have a 40 frame. Thought I might do the swap to it before removing mine. It's never that easy is it.
