Beginning of the end?? 700

Hi! My 1988 740 wagon is starting to show some evidence of its age. The car runs great but it is starting to show some rust spots behind the sunroof. I recently took care of those but 3 months later they showed again. The guys that took care of them told me that on the first repair the spots were superficial and that they are showing again because a reinforcement bar behind the sunroof probably is rusting away from the inside out. I beleive this to be true since the spots are appearing in an almost straight line behind the sunroof. Is this the beginning of the end??? I mean I know this could be repaired but it would take an inmense amount of work (taking off the ceiling upholstery and it would became very costly I think for a 14 year old car!) Any comments would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!!!!

Oscar
