They sure don't. The Olds will be fine.

If that is your biggest concern, you're in good shape. As hiknapster said, you will be in great shape. It's nice to see that someone at least is not worried with the standard questions: job, safety, cost of living, schools, culture shock, etc.
Good luck to you ! By the way, I think it's a fair question, we have to take sometime and take care of our hobbies.

If you're in Florida right now and your Olds has survived all the salt air ok down there, it'll do fine in Tennessee. Just remember to wash the underside of your car occasionally if it's been a hard winter with lots of snow and ice (which is rare).

By the way, that's a great car you've got there!

Welcome. Just keep you ride inside during hotter weather and in colder spray off if they mention a change of snow, sometimes they put salt or chemicals on the road if they expect a snow but that's seldom. You'll fit in well here. Got a few myself. You'll find lots of old cars here and I think maybe cheaper than Fl prices. I have 13 antiques plus our daily drivers (3).
