First of all iam new to his forum and just purchased my first vette 84 /4 sp for 2500,which at the time I felt wasnt bad.The owner tells me he hit a curb on the right rear wheel,the tie rod end was bent,so I replaced both (why not right),BUT the left side wheel is tipped in on the top and out on the bottom.Ive taken it to have the frame put on a rack to check for squareness,there appears to be nothing bent to the naked eye,also they tell me an alignment may bring most it back in ,being new to corvettes Iam not sure where else to look or some of the items that could be bad.Any ideas or sugestions would greatly be appreciated, by the way I have read these forums great info.Forgot to mention the motor was rebuildt and it appears to have 84000 on the clock not the motor,also did a car fax.
 
Alignment

You should take it to a good front end shop for a four wheel alignment. If you can see with your naked eye that the wheel is out of shape, then you need to start with the alignment. Of course, there could be more bent than the tie rod end, too.
