Depends on the rust, what kind of tools you have available, and how much TLC you're willing to dump into a 20yr old car.

From the pics, it looks pretty bad. I'm going to say it's probably going to cost you a lot to restore it to a show-quality condition without it falling apart. Almost to the point I'd say it's not worth the effort- but restoration is a fun challenge, no?

Good luck.
