I always thought the golf ball dimples were there to help you focus on a single point to keep your eyes glued to the ball during your swing. The trouble is, the waves in my terribly expensive cobra have the same effect!

It's been a while since I posted/reviewed this thread and I appreciate all the feedback. The wiggles have not gotten any worse and I've made the conscious decision to just enjoy the car the way it is. After all, it sounds like the general consensus is that I am stuck with it. The body was constructed of hand laid fiberglass but I have no idea what the Las Vegas prisoners (many on this forum may remember the Shelby American history with this) were using for resin.
