Swap 70 PU Cab to a 1990 Sub 4x4

Hello

I have access to a 1970 PU Cab and Frontend. There is no frame or bed, however I have gone through all the points that habor rust in this vintage truck and there is none. The farmer has it stored in a hay barn, several in fact.

I have a 1990 4x4 Suburban, solid front axle with a wheelbase of 127, that is a great daily driver that I am considering making into a donor chassis for the 1970 PU.

Is this possible? What are the biggest issues that I will face? Has anyone done this?

Thanks for the time.

the body mounts may not be right on... also i dont believe the wheel bases will match up either. no big deal if you are considering a custom flat bed. i know i WILL be corrected if i was wrong.
