I was just assuming Mike has more than just some cosmetic surface rust (largely because I can't imagine a little surface rust would be a huge concern... that said, even surface rust is sometimes hard to completely remove + many body shops won't warranty that kind of work. Our winter beater is solid structurally but had developed some fairly nasty cosmetic conditions that would have worsened uncontrollably had I not done something (to the point of becoming structural eventually)... we keep just trying to get another year out of it before the tranny fails (seeing the warning signs), and it just keeps chugging along fine! those old ones are tanks!
