I would deffinately would be looking at the front spring perches and the quarters for filler material. Thats the most common rust places for those. I also believe that the front frame on those are like the 67-69 Camaro's and the 68-72 Nova's. I had a manual steering box on my 67 and the pitman arm was going bad. I had a hell of a time trying to find a new one since the only thing they were reproducing was the power steering pitman arm. Might look into what it has and if the steering components are still available.

Other than that I love old classic steel and would take it over most modern Euro stuff but thats just me.
