82 GMC 1500 2WD short bed conversion

hey guys I'm new this 82 GMC 2WD 1500 LB 6.2l the guy i bought it from rebuilt a 92 engine and 700R4 for it also its straight and rust free.
i have only driven it around my property for last nine years so its time to do something with it
so the plan is a frame up restoration and convert it to a SWB lower it 2 front 4 rear
this will be a low budget build i will do all the fabrication and paint to it .
if i can make it i won't buy it
so i picked up a 73 or 75 GMC SWB parts truck(green) no motor or trans but the beds junk
If i cant find a good used SB box cheap I'm going to shorten my long box

here's some pic's thanks JM
