Well its finally here. Looks pretty good. Here's what I've found so far:
rust...worst is in the door/cowl area...where the hinges attach. not rusted thru, but "wrinkled " paint and "soft" spots. one hole under where the battery goes in back..rest good. Small soft spot in wheel wells. Haven't checked the floors yet, but based on the hatch,I expect them to be good...with minor repairable spots.
The engine trans are in the car...we just need to hook everything back up.They came out of a 95, so the trans gearing is a little different...worth swapping trans? Former owner says the master brake is a boost unit..different then the Sonett's origional. I have a unit from my 96..is this the same?...more later
