     I am looking at a later 70'S 4 door c30, what should I look for and watch out for ?  Maybe get to see it in a week or two.

Looks good!  If it were my truck I'd convert it to a shortbox and drop it and shave it, but that's just my taste.  Just do whatever you feel led to do and make it your own.  Don't let others tell you what mods to do, just make it your own!

Thanks everyone for your suggestions! It'll take some time what ever I decide w/these rising gas prices!
