Default another fox

Hey everyone. I am in the proces of rebuilding an 89 fox that I bought without engine or trans. I came across an 87 fox yesterday for $800. It has rebuilt trans and carbed engine. The 87 was originally a 4 cyl and basically had a crappy engine swap done. (I know this because the original wiring harness is all hacked up.) The car also comes with flowmasters. Anything I should bee looking out for?

open the doors and look to see if the door pins have the original weld, or if they've been re welded or have a cotter pin through them. check out the subframe to make sure its not all bent up check for rust around where the spoiler mounts to the hatch and all the wheel wells
