Looks like someone has already tried to fix it.
The middle of the picture doesn't scare me, but to the right, which is cut off in the image, does.
Looks like the area of the frame where the firewall meets the underbody. If that is the case, there are multiple layers and several compound curves that need to be recreated. The rust needs to be cut out, and new metal welded in.
