that is also true, no harm in removeing the couple of scabs of rust thou.
just wondering. i dislike rust so removing it would mean having both side's lower sections re-painted and blended.
and scaryly enuff i thing the bumpers are blue plastic faded to grey

Best thing you could do to that car, clean up the paint, service it and sell it with all the recipts in the hope you make money

IMO if its just a runabout then do nothing that will cost you money, leave the rust, its never going to increase its value massively by fixing it and having it rust free will not make people stop and stare at it being mint.
Just clean it and blacken up the bumpers, job done.

Keep it mechanically sound and use it as a run around. I love my pug for this. It's covered in little car park dents and so i'm not worried about parking it anyway

Well yeah 
It's worth fuck all when i trade it in anyway so i don't care They are just worried about mileage and service history 
It's not that bad really, two little door dents which are easily pulled out.
My dad keeps telling me to pull the plug on the clocks
