1946 project

I have a 46 ford cab that i am planning on putting on a donor truck? Does anyone heard of anyone putting such a cab on a newer ford truck frame? Also, why does everyone like the mustang II front end? I have heard many people talk about it but have never heard why. I am about to weld in a new floor for the cab and I am looking for a donor truck at this time. Would like to hear what kind of truck is recommended.

I have seen a 47 cab mounted on a 1975 Blazer. That was several years ago and I believe that the truck has since been sold. In any event, I haven't seen it around lately. I never did get a close look at it so I'm not sure what modifications had to be made but it looked good on the road. It had a wooden stake body and the Chev had an automatic transmission.
