Welcome to the forum.

Yes it's worth fixing but also what you can currently see will not be the limit of the required work. However it's not going to be cheap if you are paying someone else but as a diy project it's eminently doable if you know your way round a welder.

Well I can fabricate the metal all fine just I only have a gasless welder which I wouldn’t even bother using on these 🤣. Just hoping it will be safe to use until I get that sorted out. The other side of this is actually fine just the rear side as show on photo is worse
