I agree that fab'ing one will be quite a task. I have never found any drawing
for the bodies, not even the wooden ones.

You might consider two options:

1. Get an M211/M35 body and use that. I did that for many years with my CCKW.
It is the correct length and mounts on the frame rails just fine. It is 8"
wider than the original.

2. Take the body above and cut 4" from the bed on each side between the frame
rails and the sides. This will make it the same width as the CCKW body.
After this, you could modify the front under floor section to relieve it
for the spare tire. This is a lot od work, but considerably less than
building a body from scratch.
