Just found rust on my W123

Hey, I just bought a 1983 300D and I just took out the carpets to clean them and I had a few little surprises there to bum me out. I have a couple holes in the floor behind the driver's seat. Two holes are located to the front and rear of the part that bolts the driver's seat to the car. Those holes worry me the most as they make me think of the rear corner of the seat falling through the car, which by the way is me freaking out more so than I should, cause the hole is only 1 1/2 inches long.

I was recommended POR15 to fix up the rust holes and spots but I wanted to see what people here think about these holes.

And the view from under the car looks worse




And now two spots of rust on each side of the rear wheels.





Some rust on the front floor



And lastly some rust and a hole on the front door




That's all the rust on my car. I want it all gone. If I can use POR15 I'd be happy to. Does anyone think I need more than just that?

I'm only really worried about the holes where the driver's seat is bolted down. If anyone has some advice please share it.

Thanks in advance,
David
