Would this fit? and how would this look?
The wheel wells look a lot more round like our trucks.
Any thoughts?

Probably have to change the mounting points to the frame. Also you'll have the problem of making the wheel wells line up with the wheels. Then you'll have to worry about the bumper lining up right. The real question is, why would you wanna make a mutt? It ruins the originality of the vehicle and doesn't sell well. Besides that the body lines won't match.
