Hello,
This is certainly the case with my rear OS door. Somewhere in the first seven years of its life the car had a significant repair to this area.
However the dog leg on the NS had rust which has simply developed overtime - I've seen rust in this area on other '70's for sale on eBay so it appears this area is a 'weak spot' on these models.
Cheers
