Making a K/5

I have two junker K/5s,a`70 and a`72.The bodies are rough and I have no desire to bring these back to life.
I was thinking to save one frame and build a body out of whatnot.Maybe one windshield frame will be useable if not the whole cowl.I was thinking of a full-time topless fun machine,bikini top only.I could take a pickup cab and bedsides to make up a body.The one Blazer has pretty decent sides(arches good)with only the typical rust behind the door.I don`t care how patched up the floor is.I just want a trail rig that i`ll tag and bash around in.
Has anyone ever seen this done or thought about it?I want it to look Blazer-like.I just don`t need a top to fit or have it matter if it`s the exact dimensions.It`ll never have a civilized interior or anything close to original.I just want a short open top 4wd bucket.
