well this is the main benefit. i did a 71 4wd a few years ago. i had my filler neck on the cab, but i put 79 saddle bag tanks on mine to get the tank out of the cab. i had to mod the the floors a little and allot of fab when into the filler neck, but i had the the look of stock with the benefits of a tank that wasn't in the cab.
the other benefit is stowage i had plenty of stowage behind the seat for my jacks, straps, and winch goods.
as for factory ac in a non ac cab, a dash swap really isn't that hard. if you really wanna make it easy just cut the vents out of an ac dash and weld em up to the non ac dash. you other option is an after-market air kit.
as for titles...well for thous who are wondering, these trucks are not hard to find and its even easier to get a title and some vin plates from a swap meet or a title fixer.
