As far as the rust issue goes, yeah that goes without saying. If these cars are old, they are gonna have rust issues. Thank God for AMD and others repopping the pieces to fix this issue. And who in their right mind is NOT going to park their restored classic in a garage. Oh yeah, im gonna leave my barracuda parked on the street, or under a carport at night. I think this article is meant for joe average who really would like one but doesnt realize the upkeep, and care that would be required in driving, storing, maintaining, and insuring one of these. Hell i know what it takes but then again, i have been messing with these types of cars since the mid 1980s. The article may have done a favor, in keeping these types of vehicles away from people that probably shouldent own them. Look in the cars left for dead thread. Theres quite a few pix from recent times of smashed up muscle cars of which i can only assume an inexperienced driver totaled for the reasons though a bit imbellished mentioned in the article.
