as for the rust I just cut this out of a hurricane fatality 1979.
My car suffers from the rear wheel well rot. The right side is mostly good, but the left has a sizable chunk taken out of it.

That's freakin' awesome! Isn't electrolysis great?!? You get results like that, kills the rust, and it's EASY! No spending hours with a wire wheel or grinder and creating a mess. Awesome.
I didn't let it sit around in the humid air long after I got it out of the electrolysis bath. I treat it with the metal ready from POR-15 after it was good and dry just to make sure I had done all I can to prevent it from rusting again (in my lifetime anyway) and then painted it; either with POR-15 or rustoleum. It likely will not be a permanent solution, but it gave me peace of mind that I had done what I could to battle the rust.
Nice job.
