If you have enough money, you can put any body and drive train on any frame.
No. The Mustang has a unibody (no true frame), and the complete structure of the car is what gives it strength & rigidity.
You could do it with a 1966 Ford Galaxie frame, which is a body on a frame.
Could actually build a frame relatively cheaply and there are several YouTube videos to show the process, mostly is steel, some cutting tools, a few levels and angle finders and being able to weld. Can purchase a chassis from many makers.
As Pat says the Mustang is a uni-body with modified front sub-frame for the suspension, which is linked into the main body unit with torque boxes and strut tower panels, etc. One thing many people are doing to lower valued Mustang/Comet based cars is to swap out the tower/coil over strut system to a modified Mustang II front suspension. Makes them non-original and not "restorations" but they are very well mannered drivers with the swap.
Seen a few chassis while searching Craigslist VIGOROUSLY and there are other chassis that might fit under an A with not much hassle (something closer to 1940) but have to compare wheel bases.
Personally, since I have access to a welder I'd build my own. I'm working on a 54 F100 currrently.
A 66 Mustang is a "Unibody" car. It doesn't have a separate frame. If you want to build a Ford Model A, there are DOZENS of companies out there who make a custom frame for you.

- Is the 2013 ford mustang a unibody or frame body? I crashed my 2013 Ford Mustang GT/CS and i'm just curious if its going to be totaled. One the airbags went off and also the whole front of the car crumpled up… But the big medal frame is still good… One of the guys that picked up the car said it will probably be repairable due to the frame or unibody being intact… I want to know if its a unibody or frame built.
