 First off, I'm NOT a vette owner but having just gone thru a hail
storm yesterday in Texas, I wondered if the hail (pea size) would hurt
(make pock marks) in the newer corvette bodies if parked in an open
area? Are vettes still fiberglass bodies?

Obviously one shouldn't park outside if you know it's going to hail
but in Texas, you don't always know.

I should think that if it was indeed "TEXAS" sized hail, there would be
nothing left of the car but a pile of smoldering rubble.

'Vette's are just as susceptible to hail damage as any other car,
perhaps even more so. There is no such thing as a "dent" in fiberglass,
and yes, new Vettes are still being made of fiberglass.

My guess is that the Vette wouldn't show the damage immediately like a
sheet metal car, which would show dents; rather I might expect the
Corvette to develop tiny spiderweb-shaped patterns of cracks in the
paint, or perhaps small bubbles, after a few months or years.

 I use my c5 convert as a daily driver. I've been in several hail storms
here in the DFW area. No damage. And the C5 is not made of fiberglass.
