Lemons racecar, addressing rust

Looking at picking up a 914 for a Lemons race in late October. I have a particular car in mind that has been sitting for some time. Its been started somewhat regularly and the mechanical w're relatively well sorted before it was parked.

But its been parked for a while. Which is to say: I expect rust and lots of it (pictures forthcoming). If I don't care about the condition of the car per se, but just need it to last a couple of 12 hour track days (and perhaps others), what are the areas I have to address, or check for their integrity? We will have a full cage welded in, which I assume will help tie the car together structurally.
