Here is the gmc donor:

My dad did literally the same thing. But he started with a '61 shortbed fleetside that was his daily driver. He rolled off the cab and pulled the bed, and put a '65 cab and '55-'66 short step on. He eventually replaced the t-bar front suspension with '67-'72 coil spring suspension. But everything done to the truck isn't just all that simple. I have a link to the thread somewhere.... Here it is!

Truth be told, I miss the hell out of that truck. I'm gonna buy my fiance's dad's '65 Chevy from him eventually, so that I can rebuild my childhood, so-to-speak.
