Maybe you could put a cab from a crew cab truck on a Bronco frame and just skip the bed all together!

That definitely probably won't work. I doubt a supercab will looking at the pic posted by Ace.

Here's a regular cab on a Bronco chassis with a shortened bed:

I give credit to 76f350spercamprspeal for finding it in the first place, I hope that's ok lol.

I'm voting for the crew cab/no bed/bronco frame.

They are all gonna be ugly. but that promises to be hideously interesting.

That might be a longbed frame, but the box is pushed way forward. Craigwell (forum member) has a Supercab on a highboy frame and he's got at least 18" in front of the rear wheels.

Check the wheelbase on that gray truck, and I'll think you find it's 155".

Supercab - Shortbed: 155"
Regular Cab - Longbed: 133"
Regular Cab - Shortbed: 117"
Bronco - 107" aprox...

According to the owner/builder of that truck it's 133". See this thread: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/8...b-highboy.html

I'd be willing to bet that the blue one is actually on a shortbed frame.
