Floor & Vent RUST?


I'm in the process of pulling the carpet and padding from a '71
Squareback.  After cleaning up the rust, I plan to coat the floor with
heavy, brush-on undercoating tar.  Home Depot sells a heavy fabric (about
1/2" thick) used for household padding/insulation.  I think it may work
well under the carpet (the current stuff is rotted.).  Any thoughts if
this plan would work?

Floor heat channel rust!  The heat channels (below doors) are filled with
rust and scale.  How can I clean these out really well and stop the rust
before they collaspe?  I'm not planning a total gutting / restoration. 
Overall, my Square is in pretty solid shape.

Thanks in advance for help.

ps.  Still looking for trunk and doors frame seals at a reasonable cost.
