thanks, comp2. I don't expect it to be "cheap". I need to come up with a decent estimate, if I'm going to make an offer on the car. I'm guessing the minimum on undercarriage restoration would be around 6k. i need to figure out a GUESStimate of a top end. 10k? 15k? 20k? I recognize that I'm playing a game of probabilities here, not precise measurements. thanks for any guesses on that top end dollar figure!

If one area is that bad, several other areas will be bad as well. I think the first thing would be to asses all the bad areas; not just one. If you are paying someone to do the work it's hard to say if the metal work will be $20K or $50K. If you do it your self, it's a labor of love:
