Sounds like a big job but it's not really. Do as some guys like Powell 72 and drive his truck while he repairs another cab to be swapped when he's done with the cab.
Don't let the bad things you've found turn you off from this project. Hey, it's 40 years old. It's got some cancer. It's still a good start.

You hit the nail on the head, 40 years old... rockers, radiator support, lower doors all in bad shape. I can see bad body work under the paint all over the truck. Thanks for the encouragement, I need all that I can get.
