Found Rust Need Opinions

Found this. Theres a hole 2x2 on each side of the car.


Not my pic but this is the area. Thanks to 85berlinetta2.8
for the pic. I also need to replace outer and inner rocker panels on the driver side due to a hole and replace the front 1/4 on the pass side due to a hole. I also have surface rust around the other front 1/4 and some surface around the rear 1/4's What would be the cost to get this professionally done and also a professional paint job... This is for my GF's camaro.

Would it be wise to look for a rust free body and swap over?

There is some stuff called POR rust treatment. It penetrates (lol) the rust and turns it hard as a rock...
