How are your welding and metal fabrication skills? If you have to pay to have the frame repaired, you may have more invested in the car than it's worth. That depends on the extent of the repair.

Rust repair always takes more work then you first think. If it bad in one spot its bad somewhere else. I fear no repair on a car but there is only one good way to deal with undercarrage rot, disassemble, restoration.
