i had a mechanic to come over and look a 280zx and he said he needed to jack it up to look under the car and he jacked it up on the frame rail on the driver's side - this would ringht under - drivers floor board area and I bent down and watched this and saw the frame rail bending so i told him to stop well his jack bent in the bottom of rail - about 1/4 of an inch or a liittle more and left some marks on the rail - the side of the hollwo rial appear to be still solid and the the bend is about 4 inches long - it's basically an impression from his jack he never lifted the tires off the ground - if he was going to jack this way - he should have used wood to maybe the rest of the upper rail appears straight and level - only the bottom part next to the ground appears bent in and not level with the rest of the rail i did notice tha the door of the car seend to shut tighter - after this - but maybe that is just me noticeing things all of a sudden my question - should i be concerned about damage to the car - saefty wise - thank you for any assiatance i will try to take a picture and show you tomorrow
