True true, they kind of got the count screwed and it was off the air for a while, they had to come back in somewhere.
So they picked it up where they could. It's been off most of this year, I wonder when it's coming back?

True, that's why you have to pay attention to hints of when it's going to reappear.
Right now, I'm going to guess spring or late winter.
No reason, it just feels right.

I wonder if there is any issue with condensation building up inside the cover causing potential issues with rust. Also, how would it hold up to varmints like squirrels, rats, etc. chewing through it.
Condensate forms on the warm side of the vapor barrier. In or out doesn't matter. Air exchanges whether in or out will dissipate condensate.

Found this and couldn't think of a better area to put it.

It's a 1969/2002 Camaro, the base car is the 2002, with 1969 pieces added, very clean conversion.
Interesting build. I'm not a fan of the way the nose of the car looks like it's too short and bends unnaturally downwards. But, maybe the original Camaro did that as well. I've seen the same type of thing done with the 67 Mustang. I loved my '65 Mustang but not it's reliability...

That's the stock nose off a 69, so it was always bent that way (read the article) it was narrower though.
I thought it was strange that they are all going to be convertibles, I wouldn't mind having one if it was a hard top.
