    The entire car was taken apart and all parts that needed replacing were replaced. What is the birdcage?

    The birdcage is the steel structure that all the fiberglass is bonded to.It runs from the Windsheild header and A-pillars,down the cowl,through the rocker boxes,up the rear door jambs and over the roof.They rust terribly.

    No problems with rust. It was kept in the garage for 15 years. It was checked and found to be solid.

    Good luck with the restoration. I love 'Vettes. In my little fantasy world, there will be a C4 'vert in the garage (wish I'll have the dough for a C5 as a summer car) and a Maggie R/T in the driveway.
