Going to Look at My First Truck... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well, a guy I met has a 78 C20 for sale.....going to take a mechanic friend over and have a look at it sometime in the next week or so.
Apparently has drop spindles, 5 stud conversion, fresh heads and a rebuilt steering box - good everyday driver truck. He's only selling as he has bought a later model extended cab truck with back seats for his kids (2nd one on the way).

So....being as how I don't know these vehicles, what sort of things should I be looking for?
Thanks for any advice.
