Chris,

I was able to view them......and it looks good! In the pic of the cab bottom in red primer what's the black stuff that you sprayed on the battery box floor? Undercoating?

thanks,
bob

I shot that area with Eastwood's rust encapsulator. I also sprayed inside the hat channels with it, that is what you see running down. I have had good luck with that stuff in the past, it seems to hold up against chemicals and acids
