I am a "you can't save them all" guy. I'm guessing the rust on that car is terminal. It's $25k plus to do it right for a professional. If you can cut and well, you can do it for pennies on the dollar of that number.

If it were me, and I wanted a complete car, I would start looking for a cheap 912 roller. They are out there pretty regularly without a ton of rust. There will be some and you'll still need paint, but you could transplant your whole new rusty car onto another chassis. A 68 Sporto is a cool car, but it might not be worth saving it other than in spirit. Vins die sometimes.
