Interior Update
I have the entire interior out now, broken glass and cigarette butts are all over the place (from the previous owner)... but for the rust report... It's not bad, not bad at all. On the driver's side, there is one spot that has rusted though as shown in the first two pictures. The passenger side also has a rust hole and some surface rust... the t-top area of the car also has some rust and holes as seen in pictures 5 and 6... I'll need to take it to a body shop for some welding. The last picture shows the t-top bar (black and silver) it's done for, I thought the rust and metal parts that were flaking off was from the body. It was not, it was only coming from the removable piece which I have already ordered a new one of. The body under it was perfect, not a hint of rust I have a feeling the previous owner had something to do with this as there were extra screws in the t-top bar... two of which refuse to budge... a Dremel will fix that... evil grin.
