Hey 52,
I can't give you an exact swap for a 52 Dodge, I don't think there is one. Invest in a good measuring tape and a fist full of pencils, crawl under the 52 and measure wheelbase, width of axles, length, width, width at different points, the distance of the rise at the differential, etc, etc. Then go to your local junk yard and look and measure different frames to see which ones come closest to your 52 frame. Begin with Chrysler products (Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth), also look at Chevy and Ford frames. Try to pick one that fits closest to your measurements that comes stock with Independent Front Suspension, Power Brakes, and Power Steering. That way you'll save yourself expense and grief. Leave the imports alone, you'll find that the 52 body will be too heavy for them.
Good luck.52 Ford F-1, 327 Chevy, S-10 frame
