Rotted Metal in main compartment Bay

[PIExpress]

Hi,

I noticed I had metal and wood rot in the lower compartment which was camouflaged by the dealer we purchased it from so now I am in the process of tearing it all out. I am a little upset that the dealer would hide such a problem. When I opened the lower compartment bay the dealer had accessories laying over the problem area hiding the mess underneath. There appeared to be a slight sag underneath the panels laying over the area which is what brought it to my attention in the first place. (I am referring to the main storage bay).I am looking for advice on the repairs etc. I have attached a few pictures this way you all can see what Fay and I are up against.(The pictures were taken after the carpet was removed.)
