A DRY dirt floor is as good as anything else that is dry.  But a dirt floor 
that gets WET often is bad.  The worst is a car cover that doesn't breathe over 
a car stored on a wet dirt floor.  And not just for Corvairs.  after only 
three years our church van with less than 20K had rusted out lower A-arms on the 
front suspension and a transmission oil pan that rusted through after being 
stored over dirt than got wet frequently.  Brake lines and rear AC and heater 
tubing rusted out as well.  It's not what it's parked on that counts--it's the 
trapped moisture.
