Default how bad is this?

How bad is this rust on the bottom? I just got the car recently pretty cheap, hoping to turn it into something good, but before I go ahead and spend all my money, I'd like to know if I'm good to go for another couple years with all that rust on the bottom... and if it would make sense to try and get rid of it, or would it be a better idea to find a new body for it? And how much would I be looking at to get rid of that rust?









Thanks

that's exactly what I'm afraid of... but I have the car already, so I want to make the best out of it... bahh, it doesnt help that its my first "project" car either

Not too good. Have an experienced body man take a look at it.
