I don't know what kind of money you're talking about, but I wouldn't let this stop you in either direction.
If you're like me, it doesn't end up going as simply as this swap seems anyway, and you're bound to have to "figure out a way". I wouldn't let this effect my decision.
Decide what wheelbase you want and go for it.

I could get a the 1 ton flatbed for a pretty decent price, but Ive been searching for a bed and or parts and it seems like the bed panels would end up costing two times as much as the actual truck. I stopped by a salvage yard today that had some pretty beat up panels are they quoted me more than what I would be paying for the truck.
Financial it wouldn't make sense to get the 1 ton in hopes of finding a bed
