You can see in the pictures of the car that the right front tire is not centered in the wheel well and the opposing rear tire is off center in the opposite direction.

Is this something that can be corrected? Suspect it would involve removing the body from the frame and remounting somehow (ughh)...not something I could do but maybe a local shop?

As always, appreciate member's answers.

Yes, this is a common problem on the 7000 series cars. Go to www.TeamShelby.com and find the member named MY500SS (Dan) on there. He just went thru the same issue with his new 289 FIA Cobra.
