 So, I've torn down the car to try and discover all of the rust issues. Here's the worst of it:

Under the brake booster



Under the left hood hinge



Under the fuel tank



Under the windscreen/trim



There's other rust, but it's all easy stuff. The floor pans still look good.

I'm thinking the windscreen bit will be the more challenging repair. I may end up forming the replacement out of three or four smaller sections...made with a metal brake, stretcher, and possibly try my hand with an English wheel. The other stuff seems simple enough to cut and weld. I will most likely need a new fuel tank...I don't think this one is salvageable.
