JHS: there are a lot of other signs on the car that showes that it is an ex wrc car.look at the cooling duct on the right side of the front inner arch. and the tubing in the engine bay, and the other engine mountings..
cant remember that the early wrc car had that wide front wings..so . i think it is an ex wrc car.

Get the fooker sand blasted. Best way when the car is at this stage IMO.

Then you'll see any minor rust spots(which might not be a good thing )

When he mentioned blasting he meant so that you can then check if it's got any tin worm or anything hiding under the paint as by the look of your pictures it could have as theres quite a few places with surface rust.
