Default 86 Square Body on SS AWD

Has anyone done this yet? I have started this project.bought an 86 C10 Longbed with minimal rust. Also, found an 03 Silverado SS roll over. Seems to be coming along pretty quickly. Been searching around, can't find anyone that has one completed. Let alone started.

This is where I sit now. Anyone interested? I have plenty of pics.
