From the pictures that you posted I think you are probably looking at mega bucks, perhaps as much as 8 or 10 grand. The key to rust is not fixing, but replacing unless this is going to be a daily beater. The rocker is expensive to do and the rust around the back looks extensive. Also you probably will need them to take off the front fenders and check for rust in the inner fenders as well as behind the firewall. It's sad because it looks like it was a beautiful car at one time. Depending on where you live, I'd take it to Bud's Benz in Atlanta (they have a website on the internet) and ask for their opinion. They do a LOT of restoration here in the South.
Good Luck and keep us posted!
