Alignment
Are there any shops in the middle ga area that will align a lowered vette. Went to the dealership and the guy said he won't touch it, went to a few other local shops and they say its too low to get on their ramps

Have you calculated the approach angle on your car? You can use the "yardstick" test described in the Race Ramps document I attached to get a rough approcimation of the approach angle. If the raised end of the yardstick is at least 5" off the ground, then the 6.8 degree incline sections on the new RLL-80-2 ramp will fit under the front end of your car.
The RLL-80-2 ramps incorporate an incline section which can be flipped over and used as a trailer ramp. Although your application does not require a trailer ramp, if you use a 2x6 shim on top of the step of this ramp, it would probably work to extend the metal ramps on the independent shop alignment rack.
The approach angle on your car has to be greater than 6.8 degrees in order for this ramp solution to work.
