Sorry, had to do it. It depends on how bad the rust is. Can you snap some pics??
You will need to sand it down until there is no more rust and you see metal (surface rust). If you sand it down and it looks like the rust has eaten a hole through the floorpan then you need to CUT IT OUT
. After you cut it out you or someone will need to weld in sheetmetal then, prime and paint or some other type of selant to stop the rust from returning.
