DVLA vehicle enquiry says it hasn't been taxed since February 1989.
Doesn't sound hopeful - but it isn't showing as scrapped so it might be sitting in a barn somewhere.

Main points - is typical 70's car rot in floor, A posts, sills, rear wheel arches, rear lower panel, front lower panel, front wings (front top corner and just in front of the doors).
Mechanicals are simple, strong, not much trouble and easily fixed.
