John's Quote,
"The 71 Formula I own has Never seen rain or any kind of bad weather since the day it was new...That is why it is so nice"

That's exactly what I'm talking about. No matter where the car was/is, if it was kept out of the weather it's got a greater chance of being rust free. Same car in Michigan, Texas, Arizona, New York, Maryland, Tim Buck Two, Cat Man do, it just doesn't matter if it was kept out of the weather. Answer me this, what the heck difference does weather or climate matter if the car was kept out of it?????????

I've found a couple dozen rust free cars here in Michigan. They were all special cars that had very low miles. Not your daily drivers. I find that the people who order the rarer cars don't treat them like regular cars. They baby them and keep them in the garage. They only drive them on nice days and some only go to the race track. Geographical location doesn't matter in the least bit with a car that is babied. The only difference in where a car was built, lived and moved around to, is weather. If it's a car that was kept out of the weather and kept clean there is no difference. The inside of a garage is the same just about anywhere in the world. As long as the owner has enough common sense to keep his eye on the ball with their car. It used to be, 20 years ago, that you could go out west and find a car that had been sitting outside and it would still have no rust. Show me a car, these days, that has been sitting outside since the 60's and I'll show you rust. Geographics matter? Nope, the inside of a garage is the same everywhere. With one exception, the geographics of natural disasters would have a greater impact on 'kept' cars than climate.
