My daughter's 76 has the opposite problem... the light wont go out. I unplugged the wire feeding to the handbrake switch and it stays lit. What else can be done?

I was given a Datsun 280Z runs/drives tagged and inspected so all that is good, but it has been in an accident and I am having to locate front end parts: hood, bumper, grill, headlight "extension" and a few other things. My daughter and I are going to do all of the work ourselves. We rock crawl and mud our Suzuki samurais and have plenty of mechanical experience, but I NOTHING about Z cars. We are in the Houston area and would love to meet up with a few people that knows this car in & out to help with knowledge. Any thing I need to be worried about? rust, cracks, frame sections?
