is this bad...
i was planning on getting a new carpet before i pulled the other one out, but now that i see this im havin second thoughts because i am not into cutting and welding on this car, i pushed that hole through where my thumb is with ease, opinions? thanks

I've done it more times than I care to say and never enjoy it. Pretty simple, just dirty and I hate being bent over in there trying to get all the welds done.
One thing that is good about foxes is that you can get floorpans for them... I did a friends '78 Camaro last winter and only had preformed pans for the floor from the front of the seats to the back. The area from the front seat bolts to the firewall aren't available and I had to form my own... NOT fun.
Even though I'm crying like a little beeeoch about how bad it is... just suck it up and get crackin'.

The thing that worries me most about that picture is how bad the rest of the car could be...
Now's a good time to crawl under the hatch and check out the torque boxes. They are almost connected to the rear of the floor where all that rot is. If they are cracked or rotted I would not bother with that car...
Also check out the strut towers near the brake lines and a/c lines. If they are rusted or have holes they need to be repaired before your car twists and tweaks the subframe structure.
