I haven't seen this car in person but the body has some rust. The "hell hole" has been repaired. But I haven't done body work before. I'm a decent mechanic but have never done body work. (although I have drywalled the basement).

Looking over the forum, I know there are other areas to look for rust, but how difficult is this to repair?

Thanks for any help you can give
