For me, I'd try to find one relatively straight, and swap it onto a Waggy Frame/Drivetrain/Suspension.

V-8, D'44's, etc. without too much work. Pretty common enough swap

Yeah if I was to buy it, it'd sit in a warehouse for a few years before I'd be able to do anything with it. Is the stock drivetrain terrible on these things? I'm looking to clean it up, put like 31s or 32s on it, and go cruise around the beach with it. I'm not particularly interested in doing any hardcore wheeling with it. I have a Toyota to beat on now, hah.

Thinking hard about it. The guy who has it now had an early Bronco that sat in his yard with a for sale sign in the windshield the entire time I was in high school. He sold it about the time I started making enough money to be able to buy it. I died a little inside when that happened.

I just don't know what they're worth or if they're even in my price range.

I wouldn't be either, if I did it would be just more of a cruiser. The original motor would be fine, that is if it has it, and it's not in horrible condition. Trying to fix up one of the older motors, would get rather expensive from what I've seen. Hence, why for me throwing it on a waggy frame, and some 33's-35's would be perfect. Or, do like the one Brian linked and put a 4.0L in it.
