I once saw a quote that said, "The best frame for your truck is the one that it came with."
But I would assume that only means the main rails and body mounts. I'm not against modifying, but know what you're doing or get some help. A lot of projects are for sale on the classifieds because people get in over their heads. These old trucks deserve to rust in peace or be given the proper second chance. I've done the body swap route (you'd better be a good fabricator!), modified and stock. I have also failed and contributed to the "projects gone wrong pile". They all present their own challenges. I'd put the new stuff on the old frame personally.
