I was cruising along Interstate 55 somewhere southwest of Chicago when I came upon a Mercedes SUV that was continually adjusting speed.

Keeping a car in storage for years and even decades isn t exactly unusual. Limited-run supercars, for instance, tend to go up in value in just a few years and scoring a big profit over a short period of time is very tempting. Unlike modern supercars and classic Ferraris, the 1979 Chevrolet Camaro isn t extremely valuable, but someone actually kept one in storage for 42 years. 11 photos
With only 3,131 miles (5,039 km) on the odometer, this 1979 Camaro Z28 is practically brand-new. It was licensed for only one year when it was purchased and it was stored in a climate-controlled garage until today. Needless to say, it looks flawless on the outside, with the original beige exterior in tip-top condition. This car hasn t even seen a drop of water, because none of the miles on the odo have been completed in the rain. Impressive!
