Regarding you Huck Brakes, I just got through some work on mine. I replaced the rear wheel cylinders and one of the adjuster wheels. I also dismantled and cleaned out the front cylinders. When I originally got this truck, I had a miserable time getting the drums off, everything was frozen. I had to use a wheel puller to get them off. I have also come to the conclusion that the number of people that know anything about drum brakes is dwindling. lot of blank stares out there.
As far as inspecting, see if the engine spins, 6 or 12 volt, check for oil in the radiator water, condition of the wire harness, see if the heat riser is free, smell the gas to see if it has turned into shellac, condition of the tires, condition of the bed and look for the results from a visit by the good idea fairy.
