I'd look at the Cat Conv. heat shield. if it's rusted through, it will radiate heat pretty well to the interior when standing still. The funny smell may well be the undercoating or wiring harness starting to melt. Don't wait on this...
I might also check the rubber seal/bellows in the firewall that the shift rod goes through. I had an '83 5spd that would toast my feet in the summer b/c the rubber had rotted away and hot air from around the exhaust would blow in (this may also answer a wet carpet problem too!).
Both of these scenarios are not expensive parts-wise, but are labor intensive; removal of console, seats, carpeting is required. Good luck!
