Car bent?
Car bent?
Just finished stripping the interior out of the TA to start fixing the rot I knew was there, good news is the rot didnt go any further than the rockers. There is some scale on the D side floor board as you would suspect but it still seems pretty solid.
The issue I have though is there are two "wrinkles" in the floor behind the front seats just inboard of the rockers.
I have had the common cracks at the top of the door frames and the creasing along the sail panel, it runs diagonaly from the crack area down and back across the panel.
The wrinkles in the floor look like they may be related. Almost as if the car was lifted near the center about a foot infront of the rear wheels and then bent down at the ends.
I'm wondering if others have seen this before.
Other than wheels and tires the car seems totaly stock so it's hard to imagine the bending being from lifting the front end at the drags.
If the frame id bowed I want to fix it before I put in SFC's and such, can anyone post the measurements needed to check the alignment of the chassis?

Re: Car bent?
There's a guy on ebay that sells frame dimension charts for many different cars. I think his ebay name might be "Cadillacguy" or something like that. Or try searching using frame, chart, and dimensions for keywords, possibly together in word groupings. Good luck!
