Good shots of the factory lead. . . these were NOT perfectly fair from the factory and are often overrestored
Metal Surgeon, I love watching the work you do. Would it be possible for you to explain the process of how you get the incredible results as you post them? The rear deck lid above is a great example. How did you get such nice results on those edges? I have always wondered how to get those types of dents out that are along the edges of panels. Thanks
@merbsfield thanks for following our work.i use hand weights or dollies and levers followed by a sand board.
How did you get the acces? Maybe you could post a pic it the tools and a pic showing how you used them to get the dent to come up and smooth them. I have tried to get behind edges of panels like this before and it is challenging. For instance, the very front lip of my 57 356A front hood needs some attention and I can't figure out how to work it. Thx for help.
Rear quarter previously poorly repaired/overlapping the metal leading to bad profiling and heavy filler usage.
tig welding in patch and metal finishing process begins along with a lot of shrinking due to the previous repair.
