Sweet hay-zoose chris-toose that is some bad rust.

Are you planning on doing anything to those messed up rockers? Or just hiding them by installing the panel? I had a few holes, so I scraped all rust, used spray foam to completely seal the hole, smoothed it out, and undercoated the whole car sealing it in. It was a decent amount of work prepping it, if you don't care much maybe spray it with something to slow down the rusting process.

Whats the point in hiding the rust? Id leave the side skirts on for that.
Panels are waiting, got sheet metal waiting, sandblaster waiting, rust bullet waiting, gmpp waiting, 2.5" exhaust waiting, new brake lines waiting, list goes on and on. I would not dare to do all this work to hide.
Leave the rust. Gives the car character.
Why did I buy a pulley puller instead of renting one? Exactly
