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.

zacklee,

Gosh, I can't even imagine how this rust happened. Have you contacted GE about this issue? I'm assuming you are no longer under any warranty  it I'm understanding your post correctly. I don't know what parts would be available, but again the manufacturer might have the answer for you. 

Thanks for posting.

I would take a few pictures and visit the local appliance repair facility to get an opinion.  A new range is much cheaper than a fire at home.
