The only way to get rid of rust is to cut it out. If you want a quick fix then weld in a patch. If you want quality its best to replace the panel.

Sure its alot of work. Putting in the 03 Cobra suspension might have be a little easier, but it would not have looked as good. They wanted this car to look like it came from the factory this way.
