Yea mate thats all the usual spots for these.
Also to be sure make sure he checks the front beam under where the radiator sits - that can get really bad.
Or it could end up like this one i parted out,
Good luck dude - it may not seem it but its coming along really well - gt look very thorough.

GT refinishers will have it dialed.
That 120y you wrecked Brock was one of the rustiest datsuns I've ever seen.

told him to cut and weld where rust is and he bogged everything
engine bay paint has metal dust and shit on the paint some bits of engine bay you can see the primer what a waste of time the guy had 6 months and produced work of a 4 year old
now the car will be back at soda blasters just to blast away places were he bogged which isnt that much cost wise and the car will be sent to GT Refinishers Panel and Paint to get it done at least i can trust them to do a good job
Man that sucks!
I got ripped off by 2 panel beaters on my ute before I found a good one, I was getting corners of the car worked on while keeping it on the road and started noticing rust coming back through repairs not long done.
A dig with the screw driver revealed he hadn't even treated the rust and just bogged over everything!
Im sure GT will do you a great job

I guess i have bad luck with datsuns
crashed my red datsun 120y none of them my fault and none of the driver had insurance
Panel beater that ripped me off
And now to top everything off i purchased bumpers for the datsun 120y front and rear brand new imaculate had them shipped only to open them to find out the postal people FUKED THEM both are bent and dented
seems like every lil chance this datsun goes wrong
