If it prevents you from using your truck when done, consider using an M35 or M211 cargo body UNTIL you find a correct CCKW body. I did this for 8 years until I finally gave up and bought one in Europe for mine.

The newer body is the right length but is 8" wider with is a challenge with a closed cab and you cannot have a spare tire.
