Picking up my first restoration project to work on with my dad this weekend!

Anything specific i should know about the B body cars?
I think they mostly have the "charger" rust that you have to worry about around the wheel wells from road grime being able to be thrown in there. I know the passenger door and the passenger quarter panel will need either replacing or patching. couple rusted through spots. I am also going to find out if it has the bigger 8.75 rear.
Anything else i should know?

Thanks!

It’s got the 318 in it, 1974 Dodge Charger SE. It’s 99% original. Was in a small fender bender in 76 and had the bumper replaced. Guy drove it until the late 80s then it sat in a barn from 94’ till now. So two owner about to be 3. I pick it up Saturday unless I see something is majorly wrong with frame or something
