Default Front left side is sagging--any help?

I was standing in front of the Vette the other day and noticed that the drivers side front is sagging down an inch or so. It looks like I have a flat tire up there. :D
I was poking around a little bit and couldn't find anything out of the ordinary.
One thing I do have is excessive wear on the outside of the tire.
Anyone ever had this kind of thing happen to them?
Or can anyone point me in the right direction? :confused:
It's an 89 coupe without the special suspension (k-51?)
Just a plain jane Corvette.

May need an alignment, or a bra. If it is "sagging" in the back to it could be your monospring bolts are unevenly adjusted. I always thought sagging was a problem unique to little old ladies. :lol:
