1968 CST10 Shortbed. Is this a deal or no deal

[1971 K10 shortbox]

Hey every one.

I looked at a 1968 CST 10 shortbed yesterday, I was told I could have it for $1750. The good is its a shortbed, has buddy bucket seats, a fresh 350, and TH400. The bad its rotted, the bed shot, the rockers, cab corners, all shot.
The good news I have a solid cab, I also have an extra solid shortbed in my parts stash. I also have a speed warning tach dash with buzzer that i paid $50 for. My question to you is, do you think its worth the $1750 to buy the truck? I have included some pictures because I know you can not advise me with out.
