ok i have a crack right where the red crooked arrow is pointing! is this a normal stress crack point? my cousin had a 67 camaro with a 454 and had the same cracks! what i don't understand is this is a v6 car. so my next question is does anyone have any subframe connectors laying around they wanna get rid of? because the 91 is fixing to have a 355 stuffed in it.

 

Common problem.. Get some subframe connectors and have the cracks welded up at the next paintjob.

 

When i bought my car it had the same cracks (v6). Then bought another v6 parts car and had the same cracks. Also both of my friends with camaros have those cracks. So i would say it is very common.

 

It's also common because there is a metal seam there. It's where the roof meets the quarter panel, and the seam is brazed over.

 

the ta i just bought has these cracks also. i have never see them, but then again i have owned ttop cars so that musr be the diff. but i have been told the same thing that this is comon, but i thought iwas with the 350 cars not the v-6 cars. but anyways thats what i plan on doing.

 

I have the same problem, I have T-Tops and the crack is on the drivers side. But its farther down, more where the top of the door meets the side piece that comes down. inbetween the back window and the door. At the end of the crack....drill a hole first. That will stop the crack, then weld it. Then do your body work.

 

Looks like someone went airborn in there 3rd gen

 

Doesnt have to mean that they went airborn, my 92 has them there and its a V6 w/ T5.

 

Actually there was a service recall on that problem waaaaaaaaaayyyyyy back when it was first found out in the late 80's i believe. they ended up removing the roof skin and rewelding a new one onto it. it is an extremely common problem and one pretty easily fixed really.

 

aah man i thought that was just paint cracking on my car now that i really take a close look its not............. one more thing to take care of now lol

 

fitbmxseries1, i feel your pain brother but, at least now i know i really do need a set of conectors so it won't happen again!!

 

by the way am i going to have to grind ou the old weld or can i just fing the stress crack and repair the weld? i'm a certified welder so this is cake for me but for someone that has to take it to a weld shop this might get expensive!! is is hard afterwards to smooth out the body line??
