Well, the hole itself was repaired, but I was just able to excavate as seen below. Surrounding area is ice pick proof. What are the best "fixes" to be done while keeping the car together? It does not extend into the interior either and the side runners are very solid (had been replaced too).

Guess what I mainly need is the right triangle that AA shows in their catalog for like $85. and a small patch on the forward hole?

You have a huge gaping hole in your longitudinal. That is the backbone of your car! Judging from your images, i bet if you move your passenger seat forward and look under the carpet behind the seat, you will find more rust where the floorpan meets the rear firewall and the side of the long.

That would be #2 in my picture, right? Seems that #1 is normally a hole that got larger, right? When I remove my passenger seat there is no rust where the floor meets the firewall and the side of the long is solid. The PO replaced the longitudinals.
