Volvo 444 front end upgrade and other questions 444-544 1958

Hello all. Took the plunge and bought my first vintage Volvo, a 1958 PV 444! I know the front end is a kingpin configuration and I'm wondering if there is any conversions to put in a more modern suspension (with more parts availability). I've also read an article or two about putting the B20 engine and M40 transmission in these. Is this a good upgrade as far as reliability and parts? I will keep any non-444 stuff I replace so as to make it easy to convert it back to all original. But I want to make this my daily driver so any upgrade tips would be appreciated. Thanks! Sean
