Default Greetings from the dark side

My fiancee and I just picked up a 1971 Fastback for $3,000.00
The body is solid, but the floor under the drivers seat is rotted.
The 302 runs well and the 4 speed puts out.
For the most part, the car is in decent shape as it sat in a barn for 20+ years.
It has 54,xxx original miles on it currently and we hope that with some help and guidance from you folks here, we can make it last long enough for our kids to enjoy (we have none currently).

Thanks in advance, I'll be pouring through the threads here.
