Frame/Body Swap


Well just off the top of my head, you'll need to probably relocate/fab your own body and bed mounts, you may need to bob the bed depending on the length, you'll need to run wiring from the chassis through the body, etc...

I know its been done a couple times before, and also with an EB frame, I think that's a little closer width-wise.
 
it does require some SERIOUS body mount fabrication especially for the rear cab mounts and the bed mounts. The bed ends up with somewhere around an 8-10" lift from the frame due to the design of the frame and how much it rises up in the front. If the 79 has a 460 then it needs even more work to get the cab to clear the motor, but damn does it look good with the 460 under the hood...
