Click on my links below... seeing how your "doing it yourself"! Basically... you should have made your templates before cutting out the rust. But... now that it is already gone. You can start by laying a piece of stiff cardboard to make a template of what you need to do.

The floors may be slightly different near the hump due to that 'bulge' on the floor where the gas pedal bolts down (on older styles). But... I don't own a 69, so maybe that bump isn't there? You will do just fine.
