Default Help Body Gurus

Ok.. here is the problem.. its too late and dark to get pics... but on the drivers side rear quarterpanel right where the window ends and goes up the Piller .. the (what i would cal a wrinkle) is right on the top next to the corner of the rear hatch on the drivers side. it is pushed in like something fell on it.. but no marks its more like a wrinkle in the metal fender.. ( lighter weight with only 3 pieces on metal on the whole body )

ill get pics if i can .. the car is blue and it hard to see in the day.. a friend said it was from launching hard.. i havent got my frame connector on yet..

waiting for builder to get a spot. then i got some go-fast goodies too

thanks in advance if u have any help for me

There is a distortion in the metal there in all F bodies to en extent. It's from the sheetmetal being stamped, and the flange that rolls down into the jamb of the hatch in that spot. But if it's worse than it used to be, and nothing hit it, it could be from the unibody tweaking during hard launches. It's not likely, but it's possible.
