Corvettes don't RUST! they're made out of fiberglass (Ha! Ha!) Beware the unknowledgeable fool and his money! (they are soon parted!) Even in sunny California.

:rofl: there is a guy near my house who had a fox body, a 79(0r 78) and a 76 or 77 in his driveway. The 79 or 78 had the rear window out and was used for storage
last time i went by the 79 was gone, the 76-77 was there and a bit better looking, and a 63 hardtop was in the drive way begging for a wash :eek:
im scared for the 63
