    Here is a picture of my 43. It is an old 1 1/2 ton airforce truck. I also have a newer but unknown year of the same cab, hood and fenders. I am just hanging on to it now for a future project. I think your plan for a 2x4 tube frame should work fine, but like these guys said, the suspension and the fenders fall heavly into the equation. There is also the donor vehicle version, with an s-10 or ranger frame to start or even and old 1/2 ton pu.
    Some of these will look really bad if you don't run the fenders. Nice looking start either way you go.
