Questions about vintage Chevy Trucks

Hello,

I am just retired and would like to travel around and visit relative. My family is on both coasts and as far south as Houston in Texas.

I could do like many others and buy a giant RV but that's just not me.

My wish is to buy a Chevy truck, 60's or 70's, get it road worthy and pull a canned ham trailer from the same era as the truck.

When I was younger I had a three on the tree straight six and that truck ran forever, could pull like a champ and didn't get horrible gas mileage.

My question is, with a freshly rebuilt straight 6 and good transmission, would it be ok for cross country travel pulling a small trailer. The trailer I have an eye on is a "Canned Ham" type, very small.
