So I know this kid who has a wrecked sixth gen. I took a look at the car today and it's in sad shape...the car's steering wheel points to the left side when the car is going straight and the car feels really unstable when it hits a bump above about 40 MPH.
I didn't glance underneath, but I looked and saw this: The driver side upper frame rail looks very slightly tweaked...would you guys think that this would cause the alignment problems? And do you think it's safe to drive? And do you think an alignment would fix it?

Totaled, looks unsafe to drive. There are a few options tho, throw it on a frame machine and see what they can do, ride the SOB out till the very end, or if they want to stay 6gc, get a straight shelll but its not easy, plus ST > GT or anything like that would suck as well.
