I would grab an LMC truck catalog and go to town. Growing up we had a 68 Chevy ton and a half flatbed dually we hauled hay with. It had a 350 in it out of something else, possibly a Camaro.

Didn’t think about that, just filled out the form. Got a catalog coming. Thanks.

You guys and your BBC engines.
I may need to retire my 350" engine to a corner in the garage and build one of my BBC engines and enjoy the added cubes and TQ

As others said, mechanical restoration. May look into having it clear coated, preserving the finish.. Such a cool truck.

I'd convert the engine back to gasoline, restore it mechanically and the interior and keep the well used look on the exterior.

I think you’re on the right track @PanhandleGlocker. People pay a fortune just to get their trucks to have that gorgeous patina. I would keep things pretty original, refresh the engine and worn parts of the interior, and love the crap out of it. Make it what you want really, but make sure you save some of those memories.

I like the bullets holes.

I like the bullets holes.

no bullet holes on this. You talking about the tailgate? Used to be a vise mounted on it haha. Not the most ideal way in my opinion but it worked.
