Finally moved the car and...

the alignment is off I'm guessing that's what it is anyway since the steering wheel is shaking at 50+ mph. How's this happen? The Camaro was only sitting for about a week...

I would only drive the Camaro once a week sometimes in the summer and this didn't happen.. I looked at tires and the front tires definitely need air they're pretty low
