if you look at the floor panels in the pic........what your seeing that might look like rust is actually foam padding from the carpet that i couldn't get up.....lol.........we ended up taking a grinder to it all and cleaned it all out.......here are some before and after pics of the rust issues:

it took me all of a day..........the worst part was pulling and grinding off all the carpet pading on the floor pans.........the rest was pretty simple....i just finished laying the Dynomat sound dapener throughout the floor, and had the car Towed to the mechanic (djminis.com) to do the Stage 1 kit, rally lights, Hi/Low's, electrical, Brakes and some other minor issues .......here is more updated photo's

i purchased the car on 8-31-06.......and am close to being finished im guessing the end date will be 12-12-06.....i had the car for about a month and a half before i decided to do the restoration..................let's say i personally have bit into it as of today................i did all the dis-assembling myself and alot of the prep work to get it ready......the car wasn't in horrible shape........typical rust issues, but it has always started right up everytime i turn the key..........
