It really depends on how extensive the rust is. If it is rusted all the way through then it will require cutting out the rust and installing replacement panels or patch panels (depending on the size.)

What's in the picture appears to be the extent of it. At least in terms of being contained to that area. I know how rust hides and spreads but that's my guess right now. It's a V10 w/4.10 gears 56k miles
Sounds like you got a great TV there! Enjoy.
If you can knock down the rust, add some POR 15 and get some color matched spray paint you may be able to clean that up yourself if it’s not too bad.
Thank you. I hope to have it serve many a family excursions with and without a trailer in tow.
If this as my daily driver i'd be more inclined to fix it myself. however, i don't want to risk doing it wrong for 2 reasons.
1. i want this van to last for years to come so i'd rather a professional take care of it
2. if i do it wrong, and the rust gets worse.....i will never hear the end of it (this should actually be #1)
