Mark,
That is a very nice find. I have always had good luck with older Chevy's. The truck has been re-powered sometime, as it never came with a Big Block, and 205 T-case/W Auto-Matic Trans. However it will do a fine job with the 4.10's.
I have installed Trans. Temp. Gauge's in both my one tons, and you would be surprised what they show on long hard pulls. A good oil-cooler, and fan clutch is important.
Be careful as body parts are getting hard to find,mostly trim parts. TGP
