the oven is a GE and is not more than 5 or 6 and still works fine

except: it has a rust line at the bottom in the back against the wall. I don't know how the rust started (I can't imagine they let water sit in it) Here is my question, it looks like the inner part of the oven is a shell that could come out if you removed the heating elements and everything. Is this the case and is it a part you would recomend replacing myself? If not, is this a common fire hazard (that is our main concern)

money is tight on everyone and that is why I am trying to help save the cost of a new Range.



Any help or advice on where to turn would be greatly appreciated.
