Was wondering who you were, A Reed. Now I know 
Put that motor in the back fo sho. I've never seen one like that before. How about topping that thing off with a supercharger and EFI?? If you are gonna do it, go all the way!!! I know you have the 429 already, but how about an alum 5.4 w/superchargers or something like on the GT500???
My thoughts are constantly running back to a tube chassis w/sheet metal skins only.
You gotta keep that 14 bolt out of a Ford, now C'mon. Maybe some portal axles? Not sure how much they weigh though.
You know a ton more than I do on suspension setups. Bypass shocks would look killer though. We need a Class C ECORS build. BRING IT!!!!
In the deep recesses of your mind, I am sure you have the finished product already. You can't go wrong. If you want originality, keep as much of the original frame rails as you can, stick with a Ford drivetrain, and go wild. Most of the comp Bronco rigs that I have seen are nothing but tube chassis vehicles with Chebby stuff on them. There are a few rigs that I have in mind that go along the lines of what you are thinking. PM me if you would like.
