Lovely cars but you'll be fighting a constant battle against rust here.
The DR salt laden rain and air is similar to the rain and air in Atlantic Canada. As Neil Young says rust never sleeps. These types of cars were never built for longevity. I’m more concerned about the condition of the DR roads and the vulnerability of these four wheeled roller skates in head on collisions. They are okay for the odd Sunday cruise but I’d have concerns about using them as a daily driver in the DR. An old 55 Willy’s Jeep with a pickup bed. That’s a vehicle made for DR roads. My father had one in the 60’s. The steel in those vehicles was incredible and the power train was bulletproof.
