Pretty much exactly what I've done. The important structural areas are solid. Surface rust mostly. Driven it around town to get it repaired and to test it. Drives good....enough for me.
Wanted to do a before and after photo group, so here it is. From stuck in the mud up to the rims, leaves and nuts packed under the hood and rodent nests filling the inside to running, driving and clean.

From this, just pulled from the field into my driveway.
To this, pressure washed, hand scrubbed, pressure washed again.
From this, nuts, leaves, hood insulation, sticks etc stuffed under the hood by a squirrel.
To this, hours of hand pulling all the junk under the hood out, pressurized air gun the engine then pressure washing clean.
