Is it a normal jack, or a race jack? If it's a low race jack, do like I always do, and jack up from the chassis rails. I never trust race jacks on sills as they can easily bend the sills, even non rotten ones. If it's a normal jack that you have, use the rear tow hitch as 3L said.

There is always hope to salvage these things, just gotta have determination to get them sorted.

they are 6 jacking points on prelude, 4 on seals and 1 front subframe and one rear. 4 on seals are main jacking point and also main structural part on body. if you bend them if you jacking car you have problem, if jack make hole you have serious problem.
