Looks like you planning to use the motor and drive line from the donor Mustang ... do you anticipate any fitment issues?
Not really, most is planned and executed "on the fly".
Right now I'm contemplating about the rear end. A "regular" 8.8 from the donor or a 8.8 IRS from a cobra. I could use the additional weight in the back to balance the car more...I just don't like the idea to have a 50gal fuel cell in the back like the guys did back in time.

As I said, on Friday I drive to Missouri and get the body. I take measuerments and refine my drawings. Here below my first drawing - more or less a copy of an 4x2 inch tubing box frame. After looking at that I scratched this idea....
