The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Pro's and Con's of relocating the spare tire?

Greetings all,

I am considering relocating the spare tire from the rear of the '28 Business Coupe to the front fender so I have easy access to the trunk. I have heard that if you do this on the early cars, the tire gets in the way of the door opening properly. Is this the case?

What are the Con's to this kind of modification aside from the fact that the Business Coupes didn't come out that way?
