Here’s the most rust I’v seen. Any comments?

Here are the new wheels. I’ve looked at getting it restored but the cost seems too high for the miles on it. High end was $25,000. The engine is pretty strong though, 29 mpg when I brought it back to CO from TX. I may just sell it to someone looking for a project. I’ve driven it pretty hard lately, high speed turns mostly to see the rigidity of the body and to be honest, not a creak. There is rust however, a couple places through floor but not huge. A bit discouraged.

You can see the rust on the normal areas. It's through in some places but not too bad considering.

I have a 1983ZX Coupe that has 254,000 miles on it. I’ve done a lot of internal work over the years, rebuilt Trans, repair of head block bolts, exhaust system, tie rods, shocks etc but have neglected the interior and some rust bubbles. the car actually looks pretty nice for a car with so many miles on it. My plan is to either a) buy replacement fenders and repaint or b) repair fender/body bubbles as best I can and repaint. I’m leaning towards repairing but would like some advice. Got new OEM restored wheels for Christmas so polished up the hubcaps. I’ll post another one when they are installed.
