RE: One O-Nerd dollar says it'll be a hunk of rust

Comment comment by gnifyus on 13 June 2007

It completely depends on how they sealed the car from the elements. If they hermetically sealed it with dry air in the capsule and took reasonable care that not many contaminates were on the car, then it may come out looking like brand new. I drove a pickup truck through 18 New England winters with all its road salt, never putting it in a garage or even washing it much. It finally got too rusty to deal with, but 18yrs/50yrs is about 1/3 of the way in that abused manner; and though it's off the road, it's still a functional vehicle. (Of sorts.)
