Suprisingly clean underneath. The rear suspension parts do have some surface rust but nothing crazy, mostly underside and trailing sides. The rear coils are still black except for right on bottom where they sit on arm they're peeling

The pinch/weld seams on the res/mufflers are rusting/seperating but not leaking yet.

I plan on jacking it up in a week or so and wire brushing it all and spraying a converter/sealant on it then monotoring it for years to come.

Rockers are solid.
