Converting over, need some advice

Thanks for the posts.

Hopefully it doesn't cause issues, didn't want to offend other members, which was my concern with posting pics.

After your posts, I looked at Sharpie's posts and like I said, I dig alot on the car. The interior work isn't a problem for me, neither is brake, engine, drivetrain, etc. Body work is my biggest concern. I am intending to spend a couple k more to get the car closer to what I want. If the rust already seen is the full extent of the damage, I should be able to get it done in that price range, if it's deeper, then I'll run into trouble.

It's a tough call, for me, which Is why I was hoping some of the experts could lend some advice on what the deterioration extent could be.
