First off, let me thank all you guys for your input so far.



We had the alignment checked , and this is the how it goes....



(now remember, my step-dad is the car guy, so if i dont use correct terms,

etc. please understand...)



The alignment checked out OK.  But the door is still off a little, and the

part betweem the bumper and trunk lid is out about .5"   This is what he

thinks, that the car was probably pulled after being wrecked, pulled

straight, but pulled .5" too far out the rear....This would explain the

alignment check beng ok, and also says that the chasis is not twisted. 



So, is this correct?  I know they can pull the frame, so since they can pull

it, can they push it back in the half inch???  The cars drives fine, we had

it at 5500rpm in every gear, and over 65mph, to check for the notorious

shimmy.....



So, where do i go from here??





THANK YOU ALL AGAIN



Ben
