Triumph Swede

Greetings to all. I am a former Triumph owner and it looks like soon to be return owner.
I have access to a 1969 Mk III garage find, restored 20ish years ago, stored for the last 15ish years. Sweden uses salt and chemicals on the roads in the winter, and the air can be semi humid year round. I would like to know from other spitfire owners, where to look for rust and corrosion before I invest in this little beastie. I am hoping to work out a rolling restoration with plenty of help from the folks on this site.
Any advice on red flags to look for would be greatly appreciated.
Tack sĂĄ mycket!
