You don't need to do any welding unless you want to.

After the rust is dealt with and painted (rust converter or anti-rust paint) over I have used epoxy putty and a polyester mesh fabric and JB weld to do rust hole repairs. Thin Fiberglass Cloth could be used.

See the pics. I glued the fabric on with JB Weld Epoxy and used a hair dryer to speed up the curing.

The normal JB weld has a long cure and it can run. The 5 minute type JB weld does not run as much since it hardens faster.
