Vert X-frame and ragtop - 6/12/2008 4:12:50 PM    kiwi Posts: 36 Joined: 11/16/2006 Status: offline Just had a long-distance inspection of a Vert for sale.  X-frame is bent up and exhaust rattles against it and the car has to be on the level for the ragtop to go up easily.  Is either a major concern, does the need to be level indicate body flexing or anything serious?  Thank for your input. _____________________________ Stuck in the '80s 1984 C4 1980 Daimler Sovereign 4.2 Series III (XJ6) 1987 Isuszu Trooper II 250 HP GM diesel in motor vessel Post #: 1
