I just got a new beater, to replace the Civic. I was thinking that these three spots would be able to be ground out and filled with fiberglass/body primer, and then my brother took at look at it (he does a lot of fiberglassing and body work on his own cars) and stated that the mid roof stuff can be ground out and filled, but the three big patches along the windshield will need to actually be cut completely out and have new metal welded in.
Opinions? Keep in mind I am wanting to keep this car a maximum of 3 years, so the plan is to grind out, rust-kill, fiber-fill, then rust-proof and primer, but not repaint to body color. I just need it to survive 2-3 years at the most

Car is a 1994 Mazda 626 DX
EDIT: The windshield is going to be replaced soon (next 60-90 days) as it is a safety issue, but I want to do body work before that.
