In need of some advice on repairing rust on my 1976 Porsche 914 2.0. Just found out it has a huge area that is rusted under the rocker panel molding. Is this something that can be fixed? See attached.

The engine runs great, just put on new brakes, new exhaust, etc..

Any help would be appreciated.

You can sell the parts here. Lots of parts lurkers. Sell the car as a part out special. Or, as those ahead of me have suggested by buy solid 914 shell aka roller and transfer parts over. These cars are very simple to strip and swap parts on. Even the drive train. Shoot us some pic's of the rest of the car. You can stuff about 15 pic's in one post if you downsize them. FWIW, one of the OG's here could do a car in a weekend or 2 with a helper. It would be a great way to learn your way thru a 914. There are lot's of qualified (and I ain't one of 'em) folks here to help with questions.
