Can't be as bad as the one I did for mine... rust but not dent free.
It was 100% rust and dent free until I dented it in the upper right corner. I'll look for another cheap one (this one came out of my personal junkyard) and if I can't find it I'll get the dent out. Just have to figure out them lines. Feels smooth until you print it lol we get a week off of work paid for Labors day and that is when I will do the frame in the heated garage. Working as much as possible outside before the snow comes! The paint is just rattle can, no use getting good paint when I plan on repainting the whole truck.

Yeah I welded it together, got the break from work, dug a hole and tapped into my well to pump the water in and added a filtration system so the water could be reused. I did it years ago I could fight a whole truck in and have about 8 more fet above it. It's has an electric cover that you can park on do no one falls in at night. Mostly out the cover on for when I have parties and get drunk so I don't fall in

You don't want to experience electrolysis? I wouldn't mind being a bit less rusty...... Though, hanging out in that tank for a couple days would kinda suck. 
What do you use in the water to make it conductive? (given the iron content of my water here, I likely wouldn't have to add anything at all......)
