'80 body and frame marriage
I'm usually on the 60-66 side of the board but bought a 1980 scottsdale bed, clip and cab from a gentleman yesterday. Wanted this body style for a long time. He needed the frame for another project. Got the very clean 1 owner 56,000 mile body for $200. I was pleased.
To the point: can I go beyond the years of '73-'87 with this, and if so what works best? I'd like to go with a 4x4 frame, or may go 4x2. '70GMCStep 1970 GMC Stepside swb  1965 C-10 lwb, bbw  1980 Scottsdale lwb

Re: '80 body and frame marriage
you can prolly fab it to work on anything with a welder and other metal but frames are a dime a dozen.. Make sure that you use the body bushings if you go back to stock that are comparable to the year of your frame
