WOW, it just gets better.. Large Crease in the rear panel

[Jack]

as I'm walking around the Cobra to take it out to the store, I notice a wierd reflection just below the fuel door.

A fucking large crease!


No paint missing, no signs that someone hit it. It wasn't there two days ago when I washed it.

And the car was out of my sight once and that was yesterday for about 45 mins.


Is it possible this could be a torqued panel? I've been beating the hell out my car the last three days... I know my GN had torque strees creases.

I'm livid right now... I'm glad I don't own a gun or else I'd go postal!

Here's a good pic of it:

Jack,

I dont think it could be torqued at that spot.

But good news, it can be fixed no problem. My buddy Kelly can fix it without any paint work.He is a magician.Shelby Guy is good friends with him also. Lemme know if you want his #

Oh man that is an odd spot and I can see how it would bother you,
seems as though lyles buddy can PDR it out no problem :biggthump

 

[Jack]

I just can't see why it would crease at that spot... there's no scratch and no sign of any contact

just my luck

Your car probably got hit by a large pedestrian. Some of those women can go 400 lbs. They don't have very good balance at that weight and they can careen around parking lots using vehicles like pinball bumpers.

Kelly should be able to fix you up. Check out his garage if you get a chance.

That angle is really weird... and it's not just your panel bur rear bumper. Where were you for those 45 minutes?

It almost looks like someone rested something against your car, very heavy and it colapsed. That is just insane. MF people... I swear.

the bumper is fine.


it's just the area below the fuel cap.


I'm stll boggled on how it could have happened... it's not from a person that's for sure


there isn't much room under the fuel door to make that kind of crease, without any signs elsewhere

I think I was looking at the wrong crease... duh.

Anyway, years ago on my 93 a car/truck/suv/minivan/big wheel backed out of a parking lot and when they cut the wheel bumped my car with their bumper and managed to dent my car at about that smae height, but mine hit the rear fender crease.

No paint on my car from theirs, no cracking of my paint... and not fucking note from the asshole who did it. That is why I asked... where were you for those 45 minutes.

Another thing... the day of Jeff's picnic we stopped at Walmart in Addisson on the way back... we ran in for less than 5 minutes and I parked somewhere I would never have parked normally just to run in. Well low and behold in those 5 minutes some asshole left his cart behind my car resting on my rear bumper. Thank God no damage, but it's the point.

Fuck all those inconsiderate pricks.
