HELL YES that's worth it. Are you in New Mexico? If so that shell is probably 99% rust free if not 100%. Do it, then buy an $800 running GT-S with holes in it from one of the salty states. Swap everything over and poof, you have a rust-free GTSalike for a grand. If you don't like it, flog it up north and use it's unrustyness to make yourself a tidy profit.

I can't believe some of you guys are voting 'no.' If you've never been to the southwestern States you will be AMAZED at how solid the cars are down there, even ones that have been sitting neglected for years like it looks like this one has. I bought a $900 POS Mitsubishi Starion in New Mexico and it didn't have a spec of rust on it anywhere. Cleaned up really nice after I'd gotten it painted.
