actually, the under side isnt as bad as you would think, it was undercoated and rust-proofed for 10 years, so luckily that helped alot

but i did start painting today, i decided to use an aluminum silver color that is looking pretty good right now, but sadly i have to brush it on so it takes forever, so im my be switching to rattle cans very soon, but i have one wheel done after 2 and a half hours.

Glad you didn't take it the wrong way. I guess that from the road salt they use up there.
Are you going to try and repair the body any?

I painted the rims on my old Bonneville with that wheel paint and it turned out pretty good I thought...
