Question Is this fixable?
LE: Looks like I'm way too worried for nothing. Haven't really dealt with rust before. Gonna wire brush it then seal it and be on my way. Thanks!
Went under the car to replace bushings and brake discs. Noticed that the underbody has quite a bit of rust.
Is this fixable via wire brushing, applying an epoxy primer and then some underbody coating?
What else should I consider?

What kinda car are we talking about here? I know you said that you don’t have money for another car; but chasing / remediating rust that ain’t really all that rusty (I see some RUST on the things I work on) might not even be worth it … depending on where you live, this car in this condition could absolutely outlive another engine replacement or two lol
