So I've been looking for a 1970 PROJECT Bronco for a little while now, and WOW! Even though I'm pretty familiar with EBs, how well they've come up in value, and how they have a very loyal following, I'm always surprised at how much money people are asking for! I've located one here in Arizona for around 5900, but it is pretty much in need of a full frame off with body panel replacements, motor and tranny rebuild or replace, new wiring, etc, etc, etc. No where near driveable for 5900! Seems high to me. But what do I know? Here is the link to that one if anyone is interested.

Enough of my complaining! Feels good though.;D
I'm really chomping at the bit to start working on my next Bronco, so I'm thinking about starting to build one instead of buying one. That way I can build it how I want it and not have to redo a lot of the hacking that comes with so many EBs.%) I figure if I can locate a good frame or rolling chassis and I'll just start there. At some point I'll need to purchase some POS for the title, but I could figure that out later.
???? ?:? Okay, maybe someone on the forum can shed some light on a question for me...what are the advantages/disadvantages of going with full width axles versus factory width for both trail, street, and daily driver? I've found a couple chassis for sale with a full width set up already going. Links below. Thoughts?
There is this rolling chassis with full width '79 bronco axles.

And this one here on the forum with full width axles.
