Floor boards, kicker panels, roof and cowl I say fix, but rust, or even some rot at lower door corners, cab corners, or the rear lower portion of the hood, I think could be left alone. I mean it's a faux-tina paint job.
This one for example, it looks to have some rotted out areas. Also, I wonder if they didn't line up the bed and fenders to the cab deliberately.
