doesnt look that bad wire wheel, epoxy seal it and weld any pinholes, do any body work needed then prime and paint.

Re: hows my rust ??

Yes yours is not bad at all. Wire wheel it all up and then pour some rust treatment in the visor holes and let it soak and seap thru any holes in the pinch welt of the front window. Then epoxy prime any exposed metal and get on your way.

That rust aint to bad. If you got a spot sand blaster, try that. Especially where the seams are at all four corners. Other than that I agree with the above.
