Your chassis isn't looking too bad to be honest. give it a wire brush over the worst areas. If the rust is too bad then you may need to scrape it with an old chisel. Give the effected areas a coat with hammerite kur-rust, Once thats dried, a coat of hammerite over the whole chassis.

An annual coating of waxoyl should help keep the rust at bay.

As for the doors, either new or secondhand replacements or get the old ones fixed. I don't know if they still do Landrovers UK used to offer a door fixing service on ebay.
 
my chassis is lots worse than that and unfortunately here if its welded it's classed as a modification to the chassis and classed as MOT failure.

Comforting words albeit tinged with the prospect of hard graft:D

Was think of taking it to 'before n' after' once i'd got all the bad rot treated.

Now that is bad news ( for you I mean ) what on earth do you do then? Replace the chassis?
