Around here it's scrap weight.

Trucks with bodies on them are so plentiful it's not worth the hassle to convert a lwb to a swb through a frame swap.

You might find a guy desperate because he had a frame wrecked, but, again for $500-1500 you get a complete truck, sometimes running, albeit in need of lots of work.
