Hi Julie, Firstly, you are not “mad” to be considering repairing the car, repairing old cars is practicing sustainability, and the more use we get out of any product, is good for the environment. Rust can often be a killer of older cars as it can be expensive and awkward to repair, so it all depends on how far the rust has gotten into your car. This is probably not a repair for a mechanic though, so I would recommend that you take your car to a bodyshop who would be better positioned to carry out this type of work. Local and backstreet bodyshops can be quite good value and are sometimes the last saving grace of our older cars when the rust mites get their teeth into them. Hope you find someone who can help.
