So what are my options?

I also have access to a 2002 gmc single cab truck! Could I swap the 72 cab and bed onto the 02 gmc truck and keep it titled as the 72 c10?
The factory assembly manual for your truck contains a dimensioned drawing of the longbed and shortbed frames. Get the book, measure out your frame. If you need to add a piece to get it to the correct length measuring the frame from reference point to reference point as shown in the drawing will show you where length needs to be added. Then you can get it repaired correctly. Fixing a hack job isn't that herd if you can weld.
