Here's a pic of the rest of the underbody. It was well undercoated and in great shape. It's really too bed the rustproofing companies actually did study the internal structures of cars as all of this could have been avoided.

I hate having sparks flying overhead, wear a hoodie and ear protection so the sparks don't fly inside your helmet and burn your ears/eyes. Never got burned but I've seen sparks/spatter fly inside my helmet, and I've heard stories...
