I might expect to eventually see rust along the firewall in the corners where the wheel wells slope down, like behind the ecm. the 99 I stripped had a pine needle & leaf pile back there. No big rust yet but eventually there would be.

I saw very little rust on the 99Z I stripped, ~9 years/80000 miles. I remember the shock mount on the UCA was a total disaster. IIRC there is a rubber isolator that must trap water. What a mess. And the fuel and brake line nuts. The lines had some green coating and looked like new but the nuts were quite rusted. Other than that not bad. I was more amazed how the bottom of the car looked just like the bottom of my 82 TA. 1980 engineering lives!
