Hi rtell, it's good to set up a shortcut key to highlight "naked edges" which are edges that only belong to one face instead of being joined between 2 faces.
Those are the spots that need to be filled in to make a solid.
Check out here for how to set up the shortcut key:

So in your case here it's the bottom area and 2 other places:
The bottom isn't quite all on one plane, it would probably be good to cut off a small amount with a line to get the end all on one plane.

Here is the front part made into a solid now.
For the back part the naked edges are very short so it's more difficult to get at them.
