Looks like a fun project, this site is a great resource. I would start by just reading a few posts to get a idea of what you want to do.

Looks like a good candidate for a good going over. Some guys go all out, some just drop in a V8, paint, interior and have a nice little street truck. Look around on the site and you'll get a lot of ideas.
