This is quite something considering that the other side of the car still has the factory complete quarter. Similarly, the left fender was replaced, and the cornering lamp was installed 2 inches too far forward! Again, the right fender is original and no one bothered to walk 6 feet to the other side of the car?

Frustrating, like the stack of pennies they had placed between the seat leg and the floor to lift the inner rear. The reason the seat was crooked without the pennies was that someone must have run the electric seat up or down without the right cable connected resulting in the left and right worm gears not being synced. Took about ten minutes to sync them and bingo, no pennies and the seat is level. I wonder how long those pennies were, they look like they had patinaed together for many years!

Thanks Apple for the return of the mysterious flipping photos. They are upright on my phone and computer but flip magically when posted to the site.

Maybe the prior owner had reverse OCD or something like that? Couldn't stand it when things were symmetrical side to side and front to back?
