My 64 GS has been sitting in the garage for a while and one side is oxidizing to include the chrome wheels, valve covers and side pipes and the other is not. All the chrome is new and the car has not been running for a while. Any thoughts?

Now the $10000 question: Is that stuff close to that side of the Corvette that is oxidized ????
