Enjoy it, nice old truck. If you really want it to be a K conversion, take a look at some of the great conversions by board members - Dieselwrencher's comes to mind as one of the best, but I'm pretty sure there are others. I'd drive and enjoy it, but that's just me - what matters is what you want to do with it. It's a real nice old Longhorn just as is. What I WOULD do if I were considering a 4x4 conversion is this: do all the things you're thinking of doing to it as if you were going to leave it stock - i.e. buff it out, any minor mech work, body stuff, etc. THEN drive it for a bit, and THEN decide if you want to convert it.
