Default too far gone?



discovered this under all the sound deadening material today. would it be possible to replace the rocker and floor? i am fairly confident i can fab it all up and i have a excellent welder i just have never dealt with rust repair to this extent before and could use some advice. scrapping the disco is last on my list as i have mucho money put into powertrain and suspension work/modification and she drives great.
