Rust and fear do go together when you own a C3 Corvette. This vette has been inside and had no access to moisture. However dirt when it collects inside the frame and tiny crevasses will collect moisture.
This is what I removed from the driver's side of the frame on my C3. Even though this car has been in a garage and hasn't been driven in at least ten years. There is a lot of dirt and debris inside the frame.
I am sure that not all the debris is out. I took an air hose and started blowing through the holes in the frame. When I am convinced that all the debris is gone I will take a can of WD-40 to the inside of the frame and coat everything. If you make this a part of your preventative maintenance and do this every six months your frame will never rust from the inside out.

You could oil it up every year I guess. I used to do that, but now I'm about to hit it with 2 or 3 cans of Eastwood Internal Frame Coat and be done with it for a while.
Eastwood products for the frame and a big ol'e ferrule cat for the mice.
Somebody made a nest in there. Got to evict the the tennant or you'll
have the same mess again. A mice or squirrel does more damage then moisture. Moisture doesn't eat wiring.
