I'm a ways south of Atlanta, but between 6 cars (4 current, 2 now sold) over a decade here and without covered parking most of that time... there's no real rust to talk about. The worst of it is the aftermarket chrome junk on my wifes '66 Bug (but anything "chromed" today is junk thanks to EPA laws), and I'm slowly converting that to either stainless or original chrome. Any rust found, is on the surface and wipes off easily enough. Even if you don't ever wipe it off, it never becomes cancer rust like the salt-states endure.
