Good luck with the resto, hope you've bought a solid one, I had one for 8 years. Check cowl area for rot (pour water on the windscreen and check for leaks in the footwell & behind the dash) Door bottoms , rear wings, wheel tubs, in fact every panel can be rusty. The rear 'gutter' channel, that runs (hidden) across the car where the roof frame attaches under the back window, has open ends that let water drain inside the rear wings in front of the wheels. This area then rusts out if the drain holes are blocked. I blocked my gutter ends and fitted a tube to send the water directly out of the wheel tubs.

Just a few old photo's to help me reminisce! My son is 23 now! Nice hope mine looks that good when it's finished
