Rather then take the parts from a '70's era truck, your better off swapping bodies. The turn around time will be 1/4 of what you would put into swapping all those parts and custom making brackets and so on. You will have to make a few mods to the body mounts but that is so much easier to do. Not only that you will be able to drive your truck around until the frame and running gear are rebuilt the way you want them without any issues.
