RX-3 Buying Tips????

Hye guys,

I'm looking at buying a 1974 RX-2 Sedan, Series 3, i'm in australia, the guys asking $5200, i'm not particularly fussed about the price I know it's alot different over there.

Only thing is it has a bit of rust right were the boot joins the backwindscreen, wondering if anyone reckons this a real problem??? Also if anyone has anything else in particular i should watch out for like typical problems, rust spots etc.

Thanx Rollo

so which one is it. RX-2 or RX-3. look for rust spots in the trunk area and in front floor board (under the dash). Plus, inspect under the car for bent frame, welds etc etc.
