60 Cab on 82 frame?

I tired searching and i'm sure it has been asked... Has anyone put a 60 cab on a 82 frame? I have been reading and I have learned that the 60-61 frames are different. I want to step notch the frame and bag my project truck. I have an 82 that I bought as a donor parts truck(motor, brakes, rearend, 5lug, etc...). My 1960 c20 longbed has torsion bar front suspension & is 8 lug with rear springs. The more I learn about the truck and more info I read the more I'm thinking about swapping the cab onto the 82 frame. That way I wouldnt have to swap out the front subframe/suspension, steering, rear end, etc... I know it will not be a direct bolt on but i'm hoping I won't be the first to do it.

I have been meaning to start a build thread & will... just not much progress right now
