Damn, that looks bad. I hate rust, good luck with a new fab, i'd take care of the inside first. Maybe take all the carpet out and fix all the rust first?

1) how bad is the sub frame?
2) these from poly performace should help to fix it. I would add at least an 1/8 plate to the inside then blot these up
