Question

Answer
Jeff,
Someone needs to drive that car and feel the vibration and see where it comes from. The tires could be out of round, a bent wheel, a driveshaft or driveline related failure, like a u joint, or a center driveshaft bearing, blown out trans or motor mounts front or rear axle bushings. This is a car that will reqiure some inspection time and process of elemination.
