LWB vs Sub frame dims

I have a 1/2 restored 72 GMC lwb 2wd. The frame and driveline is in great shape, and the body is terrible. At this point in my life, it makes more sense to have a burg than a pickup. Can I swap bodies between the two? How much modification would be necessary?

Thanks
-Brian

it's been covered here in the past... if memory serves, it can be done, but they aren't the same.
