I'd say, if you're wanting to build a short bed 4x4 then that's the route you need to go.
1973 GMC K2500, Super Custom, Camper Special, 350, TH350, NP203, 4.10's
1974 Chevrolet K10, Custom Deluxe, 350, SM465, NP203, 3.73's

Ditto on the above.  Although I love the looks of a lifted longbed.

If you want a shortbed 4wd.  I'd just buy one

Be a lot less work
Although of you need slot of parts it's always cheaper to get the entire vehicle , strip what you need and sell/scrap The rest

I have a mostly rust free long bed 2wd truck that's gonna wind up at the crusher in a year or so
But it's in GA
