First of all I do know how prone to rust these are. Car is a 74 auto does drive. I have checked fenders(magnet) shock towers(hammer) inspected frame. Appears good to fairly good. heres the deal. Guy wants $3500 which seems a tad low. Of course car needs a full restoration....Am I missing something????? And while we're on the subject can the euro style bumpers be retrofitted????

Could be quite a bit. What, in your opinion, is a "full restoration". Heck, TJ spent over 35,000 bucks on a car that was in decent shape to begin with... and had major challenges along the way. Now if you want to do a full resto are you playing in this field or just looking for a repaint and some upholstery work?
Anyway, the most troublesome area seems to be the rocker panels (behind the removeable panels) and the junction of the A pillar with the rockers. These areas are largely not inspectable without disassembly.
