Sweet! That is about what I started with about three years ago ('73). Since then I have put a new crate motor in it, a 700R4 instead of the three on the tree. It is currently in the shop for a third paint job. I have replaced both front fenders, both doors with aftermarket ones.
I wasn't too happy with the doors but fenders are ok. I just bought some '86 OEM doors with electric locks and windows and those are being installed at the body shop. They are also replacing the floor pans and cab corners. Having the inside repainted and new upholstry and carpet. Should be ready today. Looking forward to seeing it. I have been by several time and it is looking good.
Good luck with it. I am sure it will have the normal things wrong with it but it won't be too bad.
