Stroking it...

As the title suggests I am looking at buying a 4L engine that has not been "properly" run in 10 years... Apparently the engine has been started and run every few weeks but without being able to confirm it I am running with the assumption that it has not..
I was planning on getting the head cleaned up and replacing lifters at the same time. My questions is, should i be looking at an entire rebuild? Just rings? The engine has very low k's which is the attraction to it, but does sitting for 10 years really make it worth while.. Any advice appreciated..
