Sound about right for some weight reduction issues?

[Old60Driver]

So my '83 K20 has some weight reduction making itself known, so I figured it's time to get in there and do something about it.

I've got a few significant issues (holes), and quite a few more little rust spots.

Was going to use the process outlined in the link below for the holes, and was just going to wire wire brush/primer the not so deep areas. Does this sound about right?

I've never messed with body work before, so any tips or tricks would be a great help!!

Do you have a small wire feed gas welder?
"Bondo is not good for fixing rust" it will come back with Vengeance

It's best to use metal To fill or patch panels I've been able to fix rust like yours with a welder by tacking and tacking and tacking or adding small pieces of metal. smooth layer of bondo after.

I'll admit to using fiberglass on rust on my own rig. About 8 years ago and it's holding up pretty good every where except in the worst spot. Was really big. Much bigger than your little areas.
