Started some work on the under body. The rear section of the car was a little rusty, from the rear seat forward the floor boards are perfect though. Kinda odd how the engine bay and rear floor area were the only sections that rusted. Anyway the engine bay is all new and now the rear pan under the seat, rear frame rails and underside of the trunk are like new.

If you don't remember this is what it looked like when I picked the car up:



Then I had the rear section of the underbody sandblasted. This is after the blasting and after I scrubbed it down thoroughly with soap and water and let it dry for 2 days in the 100 degree heat/sun:





After the sand blasting, cleaning and prep I used POR15 Gray to coat the rear underbody including the inside of every nook and cranny. I will also be painting the main floorboards but will be using a different type of paint (same color though) very close to e-coat gray.
