i had exactly the same problem on my 86, nothing a little sandpaper and some bondo could fix, id say you could do it yourself and then have a shop paint it

Re: how much to fix rust?

If I am going to fill a hole the ghetto way, I would use fiberglass, not bondo.

If you mean that the top of the A-pilar is rusted through, than i would be more worried about the safety in the event of a role over. It might not be as bad as i think, if it is though, you also have a pretty flimsy chassis.
