I have two questions regarding a mustang I am looking at:

1. How tough is it to repair a dent in the rear quarter, right on the ridgeline?

2. The driver's side front sits noticeably lower than the passenger's side. There isn't nearly as much clearance between the tire and the fender. Should I be worried, and what could this be caused by?

 

Check to see if you have a broken spring or something on the driver's side. I'll leave the body queststion to the experts, but I think the ridge line would be a difficult repair. Might want to leave that to the pros.

 

Check too on the spring, someone may have left some spacers in one side or something like that

 

Thanks for the heads up on the spring. If it is a spring, I would feel comfortable changing it. The ridgeline concerns me, only because I don't think it can be pulled out easily.

 

Also, check the upper and lower control arms.

 

Check your balljoints, I had this problem and it turned out to be that. The passengers was collapsed er somethin.

 

Ball joints affecting ride height? Never heard of that one. If you could post some pics of the dent it would be easier to assess.

 

If its not a huge crater dent then i would just fill it with body filler and smooth it out
