Pretty standard rust damage you got there. I'd pick up a reproduction rear floor pan and just use the sections that are rusted out if you want to take some acceptable shortcuts. Installing a full rear pan takes a long time, so it's not a project to be undertaken lightly, but the payoff is some peace of mind knowing that you've eliminated a lot of surface rust.
The rust on the vertical walls is the kind of stuff that I just make my own panels for. No complicated bends, so it's just trim & patch. Not worth the expense of buying formed pieces. Check under your pedal cluster for rust as well. And what's up with the area where the seat belt reel attaches? |

Great before and after shots on your carbs and motor, amazing the difference.
What did you do to make such crisp bends for your seat mount? Almost looks like put a slight cut on one side before the bend. Dave |
