I owned one of these style trucks about 20 years ago. It has a slant six with so little power that I noticed the added horsepower when I was driving in 10 degree weather and the oxygen level was denser.

I would suggest keeping an eye on four things if you get one.

Front wheel bearings will go without notice, so replace them about every 50,000 miles.

Check all the wiring under the bed. A lot of it is exposed and will wear through. A quick and easy fix is to wrap it with split plastic tubing that protects it. The truck you buy may already have this, though.

There are some plastic grommets in the windshield wiper linkage that wear out and snap during heavy rain storms. These are cheap and easy to replace so I would put this on the list of things to look at right away as they are easy to neglect.

If your brake lights work and your dash lights don't (they are on the same fuse) then you will need to replace a 5 Volt transformer that plugs into the back of the dashboard and supplies power to the dash lights.

All these things are cheap and easy, but all of them are known trouble spots.
