Damn F-bodies. F*** a 4th gen F-body.

I had a few friends with these cars back in the day. I knew about the crappy rear-end but the rear 1/4 panel? too much torque?

It happens when you run a DR without SFC's. Even a hard launch on good pavement and sticky street-tires will ripple the 1/4 panel. Look at a few LS1 F-bodies if you get a chance. Lots of them show it.

I know the hardtop 3rd gen f-body's had the cracked roof issue on the hardtop models. After that you'd think GM would have learned (or cared?).
