Default Help! Door Rust.

I have an 82 C3. The door frames are rusted badly. Small holes and paint bubbles are appearing. The window regulators have thick rust as well as areas around the door handle. What can I do to repair this? Do I have to buy replacement doors or can I buy new door frames?

Photos would help to see exactly how bad "bad" is.

Or as Arlo Guthrie used to say"8x10 glossy photos with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one"
That is an inside joke to all over the age of 40 (alice's rest.)

Well, actually I'm also 37 but I kind of rounded off to be safe. That is a pretty old song I think we may be onthe cusp. my wife is 32 and has no idea what I'm talkin' about (actually that goes for most things)
anyway back to the door rust...
