Question What to look for problems with older chevys

Hey guys, new to the forum and about to buy my first diesel. I am going to look at and probably buy a 1986 chevy 1 ton and wanted to know what to look for on the body/frame. The engine in it is a swap to the 5.9 cummins 12v (90-93 model) and the transmission has been swapped also. It is a western hauler conversion too. Thanks in advance!! also, going to look at this tomorrow (today its late and i haven't been to bed yet so to me its tomorrow, on the 20th)
