Im always tossing around the idea of building with a different body. Ideally I would like to put a 67-72 chevy truck cab and front end on my blazer and then skin the back so that it would look like a blazer. Kinda like JJs rig I guess. Its just that I would have to find one for a good price, which i have seen a few for 100-300. I would also have to figure out the body mounts and be stuck with all that down time. Seems like a lot of work to me at this point.
I personally like the fullsize challanges. On the same hand the s-10 body with full widths looks pretty good.
Like you mentioned in the pirate post, you just got done tubing the whole thing. Maybe see if you coudl sell the frame/body before even thinking really hard about it. If you have a buyer then pursue it. That way you know you will get some money out of what you just did.

Did you ever sell that burb?
