Rust? Chopped up? Known electrical gremlins? Would this be your only ride?

if no to all: Doooooo it. Just manage your expectations. (Best keep a repair budget, 29 year old truck is going to break)

Depends on the condition of the rest of the truck, if it's in good condition and the frame isn't rotted out drop a reman or used engine in it and run it.

If the rest of the truck needs alot of work and/or the frame is rusted it's probably not worth fixing.
