Datto , Rust info

Hi all, i am restoring a 1970 1000 ute, and as you are well aware, there are very few around with no rust, hence mine has quite a bit, repairing the rust is no problem for me i've done quite a lot on other projects, my questions are, is there any particular areas in these vehicles that leak moister to cause rust or is it just a poor build method in the first place, is there any pre made replacement panels available if so where can they be sort, and what are other spare parts like to obtain???? any help would be greatly appreciated...
 
 
cheers Kev
well there's no rust repair panels, you can still get fibreglass front guards and bonnets i think. as for spare parts you just have to troll yahoo and ebay and put a 'wanted to buy' ad in the for sale section, it is a bit difficult to come by parts but members here are usually pretty helpul

Ok thanx mate, now do sedan or wagon panels fit utes???
the front ends are all comaptiable, the 2drs doors are longer than utes im unsure if wagon doors are the same or not. the other stuff is pretty obvious

Wagon doors are long... same size as 2 dr sedan and coupe (though the doors and frames differ
I think ute doors are same as 4 dr sedan fronts (tiny)
yea i think the top of the door frame is different with the coupe
