I fear the floors are worse than I had expected after punching through with a screw driver in several places, although very isolated and in strange areas.

There are some small spots right behind the drivers seat but not under it, all along the edge on the drivers side back to where the seat mounts is eaten away but not through the "structural" part, just through the floor.

I figure even after I do all the rust repair and get this car up to daily driving condition it will still be cheaper to drive the car per mile than what my truck costs me.
