Body Panel Alignment
I recently bought my first Vette a couple of months ago. It is in immaculate shape except for the driver side front quarter panel does not have an even gap along the door. Since it is on the drivers side I see it every time I drive and I am sick of seeing it!! Does anyone know how to properly adjust these body panels to achieve even gap space with the door and hood?? Also, it was never in an accident. All suggestions will be awesome, thanks!!

If the gap is between the door and the fender you should make sure that the section about midway down inside is actually connected. There is a place for it to screw to the inner fender. If that is broken or not connected then that can cause the fender to not line up properly.
Is the gap between the hood on the drivers side the same as the gap between the hood and fender on the passenger side?
How do you know that it was never in an accident?
