To be honest, to fix that much rust will cost a fortune.
You may want to consider going with something like a new Dynacorn body and using that one as a donor.

That car may have swam over the big pond to get there
It can be saved, depends on getting parts for it over there

Assuming you're a good welder, I would start looking into a jig and review restorations done on convertibles where you need to weld in braces to keep everything square while you are restoring it.

Good start!
Don’t forget to take lots of photos while you take it apart so you have a reference for reassembly.
