Is it worth salvaging

I'm kinda devastated at this point. I bought this 5th gen recently and was excited to work on it since it seemed like the previous owner neglected it. While working under the car I noticed the "repairs" on the rocker panels, but left it alone untill today. I decided to rip the bandaid off.. and its bad. I don't know if its worth repairing, and I definitely won't get what I paid for if I sell it.

I'm equally mad at the attempt to repair it. If it were left alone it probably wouldn't be this bad, all that foam just traped more moisture.

If I were to repair it, where would I even start? I have a welder and a will, but if it's scrap then I would like to not waste time on a sunk cost. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
