good project buy?

been looking for a project and I found a 72 ford ranger, it has a 350 engine, a/c, duals, and it runs strong.. http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b601/Logan_Keeney/LOGANSCOMPUTER/IMG_27711_zps9d1e1a98.jpg
guys asking 2800 im sure I could get him down from there but what do you guys think? it looks pretty good rust wise..

I thought Ford only made the 350 between 1962 and 1969?

*** Keep in mind that my overall knowledge level is extremely limited.

It's probably got a 360 FE engine. Pretty common in Ford trucks until 1976. My old 1976 F-350 dump truck had a 360 in it.

You should ask in the 68-72 section. NOT in the 87-96 section
