reworking a fully restored car

Again, that all sucks for you, but at least you know its being done correctly this time, plus the bonus, you are learning how to do this yourself. Maybe you can use your new found skills to help other folks out your way to replace rusty floor pans, trunk floors and other metal work. Maybe you can recoup some of the $$$s lost by the shoddy work done by Mr. Shitstain, by doing some of this work for others.

I sometimes do side work doing floorpans and framerail repair/replacement. Not too much anymore, but it helped pay for my project. Helped a guy out doing floorpans on his 70 chevelle, and did a set of floor pans on a 65 mustang. I did a few others before that. It helps if they buy the parts and materials, and i just get payed for the labour.

Nice thing about doing floorpans and trunk floors is that other than sealing em up when done, is your not messing with exterior paint work. It can be EZ money.
