Cruiser bike questions

I think I want to build up a couple of cruisers from bare frames, and find myself well out of my ken. I have some questions for those of you familiar with such bikes:

--are there particular "springer" forks that are of higher quality than others? Are they effectively a "double crown" fork, and do they all use quill-type stems?

--what type of hub has a 123mm rear spacing?

--are there good online sources for coaster hubs, built wheels, ashtabula crank/bb sets and/or springer forks?
