Body swap - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Anybody out there ever put a 60 to 66 body on a later chassis, mainly a 4x4, I have a 60 that got hit from the side at the radaiator support and twisted the frame pretty bad but didnt hurt the cab. Since I an going body off anyway and have a real rough 77 gmc 4x4, swapping only seems natural. Any helpfull advice?
