There is some rust at the bottom, where mud would tend to accumulate in front of the rear wheel. Once I do a light sanding and vacuuming inside and out, I will paint it with Rustoleum Rust Reformer (similar to POR-15 if you know what that is). Then I will fashion a plate to cover the small holes in front of the rear tire, held on by sheet metal screws, and hit it with spray undercoating.

Here's a pic of the wheel well. On stamped frames like this, undercoating or spray rubber would be a great idea when new. Thinking of the Icebear Champion for example.
