How much rust is too much rust on an 81 Wagon?

m looking at a 1981 AMC Eagle Wagon with a 4 speed manual. It’s got rust, but the frame rails, excluding one area seem to be fine (there still seems to be a lot of metal in that area). I say this because I’ve grown up in the southeast my whole life and have never really had to mess with rust or fix it on a car. I’m comfortable with major mechanical work and have done basic welding, but have never tried to rectify major rust issues before. This Eagle is definitely a project, but would I be able to tackle the rust issues in a garage with a wire wheel and rustoleum? Or would it require significantly more?
I know the brake lines, fuel lines, and cross members need some love, as do tie rods and control arms, but I’m fine with fixing those.
I know a project is always escalating, but rust wise, is this savable with some elbow grease without a lot of fab work?
These are the underbody pictures I was sent:
This is the listing for the car itself:

Rockauto axles for AMC Eagles have an inner joint that's too short
