is my car done? rust issues

So at a right turn today i heard a loud clunk.

when i got back home i saw that one of the mounts for my guide rod bracket was rusted through and gave way.

This is the part of the car frame that the guide rod bracket bolts up against, and holts a captive nut inside.

I hit it with a screw driver and saw that there was not much good metal left. I am luckey because i recently made a 700 mile trip.

anyways with this being a pretty hefty suspension component/mount is this car done for?
