Isn't the track width of the donor too wide for the TF truck unless you do some custom backspaced rims at minimum? If so, what are your plans to address that issue? I'll look forward to seeing this come together!
I don't expect the track is going to be a huge issue. The 2001 has a track of 78" outer side wall to outer side wall. The 57 has a measurement 78.5" rear fender across to rear fender.

I anticipate I may have to order custom rims to compensate but as the first picture shows this guy was able to pull it off with a 2003 Silverado 2500HD

Anythings possible if you through enough money at it
