hi, new member with questions.

[bigmark]

hello everyone.
im currenty looking for a 67-72 chevy/gmc 4x4 as a daily driver.

i had a few older trucks and miss there caracter and style and simplicity.
i love the bodystyle of this run,67-72,and want 4x4.

what year did trucks start coming with all the emmission junk?
i know here in calif anything below 74 i belive is exempt.

ive been looking in the classic autotrader online and see a few 4x4s(many more 4x2)and they seem to range from 5,000 to 20,000+.
i am prepared to spend up to 10,000 for a very nice one.
as i am not as gifted as some of you are in the restoring process.
so i need to get something that is already very nice...and add to that and keep it that way.

what things should i look for as far as warning signs or what not?
my plan is to purchese the truck here in so cal before i move back to minnesota, and drive it back.
if i get a nice one will i have any problems driving the truck 2000 miles???
sorry for all the questions but hope you guys can help.
thanks, mark
