That deal sounds like it's got 3 strikes against it before you list the price.... It's an 84 Ford. It's got a 3208. It's got a 7 speed.... It's hard to get away from rotten steel cabs in that class of truck... but if you just want a single axle tractor for pulling a gooseneck trailer... it's hard to go wrong with an S-Line and a 466 engine. A 6 speed would suffice for that. If you need something heavier... just get an old road tractor like and Eagle that has an aluminum cab, Cummins power and a roadranger. 8LL, 9, 13 or 15 would be the main preferences. The 3208 was an OK engine if it was used in it's intended application... basically a single axle truck up to 35K gross or so. They were fairly economical on fuel. They just tended to need a lot of bottom end work if they got pushed.
