'40 Business Coupe Spare Tire Location

I am converting a 5-window coupe over to a business coupe. I realize the floor is different, but I'm not worried about that. I am curious if anyone has a photo of an open trunk where I can see the angle of the spare tire bracket. I've seen one before and I believe it angles backwards at the bottom, closer to the rear of the car instead of angling forward as the 5WC does. Can anyone provide any information? Is the bracket roughly the same, just moved to a different place to free up space in the rear of the cab?

Many thanks for reading and responding.
 
PM sent. Here are photos that may help others also. Car is 1940 DeLuxe model 01A-77B five window business coupe with package tray and flip up front seat. I can email more photos if needed.
