Here on the East Coast if you pull the floor padding back like that you are likely to find road.

Re: i found rust!!!!@!

looks like surface rust. scrape it out, spray a sealer and primer and call it good.

Re: i found rust!!!!@!

I would look up along the kick panel and up toward the windshield to see if you have a leak. My guess it that your windshield is leaking and water is running down the kick panel and pooling under the carpet. Happened on all of my square bodies - I had one rust completely through in AZ.
