Hi: I am looking to buy my first Corvette. Am currently looking at a 73, red with T-tops, 116k miles on the body, but a new L82 engine and rebuilt auto trans. both with 16k miles on them. The car looks great and appears to have been well cared for. It has cracking on both fenders, and I believe in a couple of other places. I think these are referred to as "stress cracks" or "webbing". My questions are: Do these cracks mean the car has had a hard life? Or, are they generally common to vettes, and are they more prevelent in certain years or models? Is there something you can do about them, or do you just live with them. I am assuming with a new paint job, they would eventually reappear. Any feedback on this will be greatly appreciated.
