As far as making it fit into the truck? Your guess is as good as ours.
You could always put a body on a Dakota frame. The wheel base is nearly the same, it would ride nicer and go faster, but you'd only have a 1/2 ton truck.
You could always use brand X equipment, too. Lotsa choices.
There's my nickel.
