My Rusty Flintstones Floor Pan!!! With Pics- What would you do? 200 1987

Hi All,
I spent the day finally checking out the extent of my rusted floor panel on the driver's side and the below picture link is the combination of pictures taken.

Any advice on the best way to fix this would be greatly appreciated. I don't weld , car is in Monmouth County, NJ, .

Could I run a good gauge-thickness of painted zinc sheet metal the length of damage including under the seat mount and do a combo of things, like on the inside use sheet metal screws, seal it up real good and undercoat underneath? Por 15, anyone? Can I get away with not welding, or must it be welded? I have a bunch of posts on the way to go that I've bookmarked. The seat mount is looking to be rust free, all the welded areas by the rocker panel seem to be fine. But the rear floor pan rust goes pretty far towards the edge of the rocker panel.

Anyway, here's the link and thanks for any advice you can give.
