Everyone knows you were supposed to be able to get a new original Bronco body from Dynacorn.
I see they have a lot of parts, but not sure I see the full body on their sites. Just Mustangs

Probably going to happen - someone buys a new bronco and cuts the body off and sticks on the new old/original body.

Would the wheelbase and width work?

It never materialized.. Vaporware. Everything I have heard has been "close" but not perfect. Better than a rust bucket, but not OEM quality. If you watch Jonathan Ward's videos, he has commented only using original bodies as they take less work than trying to use the aftermarket bodies (For his thriftmaster) I would expect that he is intimately aware of the Bronco bodies. Saying that- He does use Aqualu bodies for his FJ series https://www.hardbody4x4.com/

Would a original body fit on a new Bronco - wheelbase and width?

That I don't know... But all of these type of undertakings involve "where there is a will there is a way" A lot of ingenuity and skill are involved.

You could do a restomod and put the drivetrain out of the 2021 into a classic. (y)

same idea - I guess adapting the old frame to the new drive train - shorten half shafts etc
I guess it depends if you are a body guy or mechanic - for which solution would be easier
