They are worth fixing if you want to keep the truck.

If you're comfortable with welding that's not to hard to look after. If you want to keep the truck you can strip it down in a weekend, then sandblast the frame and paint it in a rust proof paint (repairing the frame as needed). The cab once off can be repaired with it standing on the back of the cab.That way you can get at both sides for repairs.
