i walked around my car tonight, after getting home, and i looked at the body lines closely. i've taken notice that my passenger side door, up front, is about 1/4 inch farther in than the fender. also the distance between the edge of the door and the fender varys the whole length of the jamb. but the door shuts and opens perfect, almost like a new car. no sagging, nothing.
the back of the door, where it meets the quarter panel, is perfectly aligned.

i don't have subframes at the moment, i'm hoping my girl gets me them for my birthday.

is my car twisted?

edit: pics soon, my girl is on her way here with the camera.

No it shouldn't be. Have you ran a carfax on it? The body lines on our foxes weren't perfect from the factory and time just makes it worse. As long as it tracks straight down the road you're fine.

Well, since your car is a convertible that increases the chances of having it twist. I'd get the subframes as soon as you can. My car doesn't have the best lines either.

My car looks all twisted. Door pins are worthless. My frame is straight. But every panel is off. Only section of my car that isnt off is the roof/rear quarter panel peice and the rear hatch. The rest of the car doesnt fit correctly at all. [sm=smiley34.gif] Thats one positive abou the fox's. They can take a beating.[sm=chairshot.gif]

this is the only section that doens't line up though. its terribly noticable because the body moldings are way off from each other.

i would take them off and try to readjust it urself its really not that hard at all. if it doesn't then i may get a little worried.

take pics of the other side also. if the car were bent it would also not align on the other side. also take pics of where the hood lines around the fenders
