What a shame.  Started a "rod" project on a 4 door sedan, quickly lost interest, now is going to the crusher.    I always cringe at the sub-frame concepts.  Does that mean you literally take a torch to the frame around the cowl and weld on a "modern" front end????  Yikes, that sounds safe. 

 I've done the the "front clip" thing before. If done correctly on a jig, with the correct Z cuts and overlaps it's not bad.   Unfortunately lots of Home garage guys do just hack it and weld it
