I know nothing! 1800

My wife wants to get a P1800 as her every day car. I know very little if anything about these cars and would like to get some insider tips and knowledge. I would be looking at making it a bit modernised with a "proper" stereo and CD changer, handsfree kit and so I would not be looking at buying a showroom condition car, but a good, solid runner. Questions:

Did they have disc brakes all round?
Did they all have overdrive?
What engines where there? Which one is the best?
They often seem to have some rust, is this expensive to have fixed?
