Rear struts, front valance, sills, floor, mostly just rust in dangerous areas your looking for.

tbh, its easier to mention the things which aren't a problem now.
roof. unless its got a sunroof, in which case, it'll probably rust too.
check for rust EVERYWHERE, pull back the door seals, poke around underneath with a screwdriver.
check the wheel bearings, 2nd gear synchro goes on the SRs, not as common on other models, as the gearbox was better on the later ones, but check it anyway.
Brakes are crap, but should still work
ELECTRICS are a pain
oh, and make sure its got an alarm, or it WILL go missing.
