Looks like it stemmed from when I had a leaky convertible top a few years back. Water would collect behind the rear seat in the top well, then run down the driver's side, under the rear seat, into the foot area behind the driver's seat. Despite my efforts to promptly shop-vac out the water whenever I would find it back there, it still caused problems.
It rusted out the brake line and a baseball sized hole in the floorboard. I pulled the driver and rear seat out and I had a nasty concoction of brake fluid, water, rust and beach sand underneath the carpet.
....looks like my interior rebuild project is going to happen sooner than later! ...also going to need to learn how to repair metal brake lines, and weld to repair that floor!
