Hey guys and girls!

I'm usually over on the 73-87 board. I've have an 84 GMC K20, that I love. But, I've been looking into getting a 67-72, something different. I've been looking around locally and have found a few long boxes that seem to be pretty cheap for a classic.

My question is what should I be looking for, when I look at these trucks?
Where are the trouble spots? I'm not really concerned about the engine/trans/axle, I'm more concerned about body and frame.
