With a restored car, salt really isn’t an issue today. Salted roads definitely eat up a cars metal if driving on wet roads that have salt on them. But, people don’t drive restored cars in these conditions today. Salted roads aren’t a threat until they become wet. Guys don’t bring their vintage cars out until long after the salt has been washed away. The biggest problem with cars in the northeast is moisture in the air or on the roads period. If any car is kept dry, you won’t have these severe rust issues. I’m anal enough with this point. That I don’t use water to clean my vintage cars. All dry cleaning.,
