Well, there are cabs available. Some rust-free. But, as far as I know (and I don't know much), even the best available ones will take work. But, as long as the metal is sound, they can be fixed.
Some look pretty nasty but I have seen one and photos of a few others that have been fixed after the roof was pretty well caved in. They looked great when finished.
Look for a cab with an un-cut dash, that is rust-free, especially along the roof seam and the back of the cab. Shipping cost is a big factor.
But, as I opined before, sometimes you are time, money and effort ahead by just buying a rust-free, complete and un-butchered truck for your project.
