Help! Feedback needed on PPI results

74 911 with a 3.2 engine. Results (comp and leakdown not done yet):
1. Forward control arm mounts are rusted, need repair by bodyshop.
2. Floorpan around gas pedal rusted.
3. Rear main seal SLIGHT leak
4. Slight leak around #1 cylinder (didn't say head or base)
5. Leak from right side chain cover.
6. Fuel door release not connected.

Feedback on potential cost to fix? Need an answer back fast. I'll do the comp/leakdown if #1-3 aren't serious/expensive.

Thanks in advance!!!

Pass... there are better cars out there that are probably in the same price range.

Check the cost of the repairs and you will see it is a money pit...

Thanks for the quick replies. I just wanted to confirm. If there weren't any rust issues, I think I would go for it, but considering the stress these areas go through, you're right; fixing will be very expensive. Thanks for the advice!
