Hey guys I'm new to corolla and I;m going to look at a 72 Ke20 later today what should i look out for and were is common rust spots?

Hi Zen,

When a car is 40+ years olde, you look everywhere for rust. In particular,

 

Rear bottom of front guards. Bottom of rear quarters. Around roof gutters. Around boot hinge area. In boot wheel well & side pockets. Under floor mats, front & rear. In "chassis" "U" channels. Around rear spring front mounts. Under rubber lip on front & rear window screens.

 

Just go over it with a fine tooth comb.

what sort of cash is a half decent one worth as a fair price.

especially under the lower radiator support crossmember,rust on bottom rear of front guards will sugest rust also on chassis behind this section of guard,rear wheel guard lips,lower rear quarters etc etc ,as said,go over it really well and take your time as they are pretty prone to rust all over.

Make sure it is complete. Parts are getting much harder to find, especially guards and bonnets.

 

I nice one sold for $2600 on ebay in the last day or so.

Thanks for the feed back guys, ended up buying a nice KE70 that I couldn't pass up for the price.
