Question for a friend

[rahatawa]

I may be posting this in the wrong section but i will give it a go. I have started working on a 64 fleetside and my welding instructor/ friend/ guru has decided he wants a "ton truck." I am taking this to mean a duel rear wheel truck. he is wanting a late 70's or 80's ton. This seems simple enough. The question is this...


Is it possible to put older bodies on these newer vintage trucks? what is involved? any easy swaps? examples of some? links and or pictures. just at the planning stages but any inspiration, ideas or wisdom from you guys would be greatly appreciated.

and happy hump day
