most likely would have to move the body mounts on the chassis to suit.

IT would be a bit of work but it could be done relatively easily

If you use this link and put in your browser, details a guy in America putting a 60 series body on 80 series chassis.

There is a cheap 80 series chassis in the forsale section on here, and you need a fair bit of room. I would think the mounts are different, check the link in the above post for the thread on how the guy did it, lots of great pics, came up looking neat as too.
