For the Rear 1/2 degree negative (-0.5)
Toe in - zero (0)

For earlier Gen III cars the Corvette front end was 4 to 6 degrees negative Caster and for the Mustang II front ends it was negative 2 degrees. The Camber and Toe In was the same as the newer car.
Your alignment shop can input these specs and set up your car without resorting to Corvette, Ford or other manufacturers data sheets.

Caster should be positive if you want stability and handling.

Same principle as a motorcycle front wheel.
