How to measure for a tweaked body ? ? ?
I was in an accident with my camaro ( i went into a ditch ). I think my 1973 camaros body might be tweaked. What kind of measurements do i need to make to check for the staightness of the body? I took the front subframe off and the bottom side of the firewall where the left side of the subframe is noticibly tweaked.
Look at the fit of the doors. Do they still close like before? Buckles in the sheet metal. Where the subframe bolted is it dented or pooched out? The ground is rarely flat so it is not a good place to measure off of.
[&:] a body shop is the best place as they have frame and body measurement specs. you may be able to bribe a set of these for your car from a local body shop or perhaps find them online
the doors seem to close the same. there is a little buckling on the firewall where it curves up above the frame rail. i will take a better look tomorrow. right now its in my autoshop so i wont beable to look until tomorrow at school.
