About repairing the footwells there is enough to find on the Internet. The sheet metal around the air vents of my car is also badly rusted.

Anyone done this before?
 
Here's the page on my rebuild thread where I dealt with the bits around the airvents, yours looks like it may be worse than mine was.

If you don't fancy making the bits yourself you can buy the inner and outer skin as repair panels now, the last ones I saw were on ebay.

One tool I found invaluable when doing the bits around the vents is a power file for smoothing out the welds as it gets into the corners much more easily than an angle grinder.
 
Thanks, I'll mail them
Now I take a better look at the picture of the one on Ebay mentioned in the thread, I see it's the same iron bar that I had already purchased..

On the YRM-metal solution site they show the outside instead of the inside..
