Welcome to FTE.

Sell it or part it out.

"Restore"....not much collector value for that truck, so you could do it up real nice and probably sell it for about what it would sell for now.

$1500 for one here, nice ones with two speeds etc go for more:

with a gas engine it won't do well for MPG. but you could make a camper out of it quite cheap. lots of room to put what you want where you want to.
Mine was built with a 24 foot U-Haul box
