Okay, I went to check out all the parts to the car. It looks like it is all there. Original red interior pieces in 46 year old condition. There was a new gas tank and sending unit in a box, some front inner fender wells, all the under hood a/c stuff etc...

I crawled under it to take a look at the frame. I didn't see any major rust holes. I did see where the frame looked like it had been prepped and painted. There is some pitting, but nothing major.
All the body mounts have been replaced with new rubber. The one thing that I was disappointed in was that both rear lower quarters showed filler work. That will have to go.

The next thing to do is go to look at the engine and transmission. It's over at a friend of his auto shop in the next town over. Just need to setup a time to do it.

I told the owner I don't mean to be a pain in the butt, I'm just trying to do due diligence here so I'll know what I have to work with.
