Question Front wheel on my 68 Charger is odd

Hello, I noticed that when I park my 68 Charger straight, the passenger front wheel seems to be turned to the right a little while the drivers side wheel is straight. Any idea what would cause this? Thanks. Bob

Needs an alignment.

Probably has worn ball joints and other components also.

Are the tires wearing on the inside of the tread? A slight, and I mean VERY slight offset helps with steering. I'd have a front end shop check for worn parts. Then get the steering aligned. If you have worn parts, now would be a good time to rebuild the front end so you can enjoy the show season. Besides, you don't want your car to be all shined up going down the road and have a wheel collapse.
