Straight Six Cylinder versus 350 Swap

I purchased a 1950 Chevy 3100 with a straight six cylinder engine, would it be worth rebuilding or would I be better off swapping it out with a newer 350? I'm kind of curious on the gas mileage the old straight six cylinder engines received and the amount of horse power produced by these power plants. Would it be a little more expensive seeing as these are not the typical rebuild? Can you even get parts for these engines?
