    Happy New Year and Welcome to the site. You passed the first test....that being to figure out how to post pictures. Great job! Welcome.

    Hopefully, most of that is just surface rust, but you will undoubtedly find some areas like rockers and possibly around the roofline that will need complete replacement. Have a mig welder and some sheetmetal skills? Lots of help here and on youtube videos as well.

    Good luck and post your quesitons/issues in the subforums by topic.
