Spent the day scraping and sanding rust off the fuel tanks. A job fit for penitents and felons if ever there was one.
But, got them painted up with rustoleum and sealed with plasti-dip rubberized coating:

Also cleaned up the rails under the coach around the tanks. My first peek without the tanks, however, revealed a hole cut in the aluminum sheet and insulation sheet, but not the floor, right where the main tank sending unit sits.

The coach interior was rehabbed once before, and so were the tanks, so I don,t know if the hole was once all the way through and the floor replaced, or was it cut partway through in case the sending unit needed to be accessed.
