Sure, there was someone on the PWA forum doing it with a carryall body a while back.

Honestly having been working on a resto-mod, if you really want modern drivability with the old looks it's probably your best bet. I don't think it's any more work and fabrication, and all of those mechanicals are designed to work together, so your job becomes more structural fabrication and less mechanical.

Plus at the end of the day if you break down anywhere it's basically just a modern truck with an old wrapper.

Biggest downside is that you loose some of the character of the old mechanicals, and probably some of the stupid simple reparability.
