Ok.......let's see. Any s10 chassis will work although some prefer the early 80's models to fit. I did my swap on an 83 I think. Maybe 82. A regular cab long bed is the best for the best wheelbase but you can use the other versions as long as you can do some fabricating and welding. Your GMC truck however looks like a long bed. I've seen some shorten the bed in front of the rear wheel. It looked alright. Just have to do some research. Hope I helped.
Later,
Josh
