We don't have a car hoist here at home, so we can't take a decent under side photo (the car body is smoothed under neath so there isn't much to see). Another ebayer indicated that these have a galvanized steel tube frame, so they are not prone to rusting. The body is fiber glass reinforce plastic, so it doesn't rust either.

I did replace 2 photos with 2 pictures from under the engine and transmission (with the engine's belly pan removed, yes the engine bay belly pan comes with the car). One photo is from under the car battery looking forward, and the other is from behind the left rear wheel looking up to the cat. converter.

One person asked if I could include a drive by video, here's a link:
