1) Need serious recommendation to find chassis "straightening" and rust repair, as priority, must do. For my KE70, especially firewall seam-weld to engine bay section completely disconnected. It's dying and I wanna save it.
2) then depends of how well item(1) is done, if really good will be worth to continue second steps, which is complete strip down primer and re-prime up and paint.
Will to sacrifice all original upholstery for alternatives. Make life work easy for workshop.

Thank you, thank you!!! serious enquiry. step_1 check costs, if OK do, then test drive if OK step 2.
tips - long time ago spot weld engine bay + cabin. (boot section no spot weld). The drive was very very the good, so god dam happy, entire car response so good, at that moment for sure no regret, but much later realize too stiff, end up many original seam-weld crack and disconnected, so don't spot-weld for regular daily use. Only pure race car should do it.
Obviously now I sound regretful, but definitely no blaming, because I gained experience, good/bad/soft/hard lesson learn. Somethings should not be greedy for. Once in a lifetime if good. Now can't un-spot-weld, but careful avoid pot-holes, drive really slow on bad vibrating roads etc.
