I always understood that vehicles that are to be kept in storage long term need to be prepped or the various fluids in them begin to cause damage. I noticed no engine start ups on any of these as well. No road use doesn’t mean the ravages of time go away.

This is correct. I’d be curious to see what kind of damage has been done internally by sitting there all those years.

I bet the cars stink like heck too. Also, wouldn’t these cars covered in dust need new paint jobs? I’d think a simple wash and wax wouldn’t do the trick.

And if anyone is feeling generous, I’ll take that ‘78 Silver Anniversary Corvette.
