Things to look for on low mileage trucks

[stormking]

Doing a little maintenance on a '66 custom camper. I bought this from the original owner and it shows 66k miles on the odometer. But when you buy an old vehicle people always think the mileage on the OD is correct. I got to thinking it's probably better to look at some wear parts to get a real picture of mileage. Ball joints being factory riveted and the truck driving OK would tell you something. Upholstery wear would be another. Are there any others (not easily faked) that would be a tell to mileage?
