With this rust and the motor issue I wouldn't go over $2K. That rust is all in the rear wheel lips. You'll need new quarters and new outer portions of the wheel tubs. I'd really think there could be more rust in this car than that. What does the spare tire well and trunk under the mat look like?
I see rust around the radiator cap. Is that overflow hose originally clear or was it orange? If clear, then it been puking rusty water. And if so, chance of partially plugged radiator and rusted up innards. Also chance it's been overheating and overflowing so they don't bother putting expensive radiator coolant in it.
I think I'd just look for another car.
Come up to LA for Fall Fling next Saturday and look for something better.
