I concur will the all the above comments.. yes the truck and burb frame are different.. but nothing that can not be over come.. mostly its the body mounts and the last 2 ft of the rear frame rails.. although it would be much less work to use a burb frame..

StevenB is building one as we speak.. using a 68 panel body.. a 68 burb 4X4 frame and all the springs, mounts, crossmembers,axles, etc from a 71 3/4 ton 4x4 pickup chassis..

Here are a couple on inspiration pics of one that was for sale that I found somewhere on the net!!
