rust preventative

Hey,

It all looks good! So what rut preventative measures did you take beneath that cowl? Also, when I did mine, I finished painted the area beneath the grill opening, as to create a more finished appearance. You are definitely, in control. Nice work!

To gr8one,

It's not what we learned in school that matters so much, but that which we learn in life.
As I see what you've accomplished, I'd say, you're completing your thesis for a Phd!
