Check your door jams. See any plastic caps in them? That’s where they drilled into the jams to squirt rust proofing tar in between the body and seams.

As stated before lanolin-based prices are the best option today. I recommend Fluid Film.
They didn't put any in the doors as far as I can tell. just did the underside of the car.
