Default Window Rust

I have some rust on those window rail things and was wondering are these replaceable or do I need to do some sort of body work?

You would need to replace the whole window frame, and then good luck finding a used one not rusted too.
Clean it, prime it, paint it.

Have a similar problem on mine only its at the bottom. I plan on bulling the frame out out of window (which is actually not to hard to do) and sanding/grinding the rust off and then filling and painting.

for that kind of money I would be investing a day with a grinder and some paint and primer. $396 for a window frame you can buy a used door for $50.
