    I am coming from outside "bodywork", I've been around this long term, but not doing the sheetmetal. This is showing what I've seen the part that's come and gone as I wrenched, but showing the parts I missed being busy myself. It's good to see the next generation doing the same kind of work the same way my generation learned to do in our own time. Very nice work, good attention to detail, if it's not worth doing right, it's not worth doing. Thanks.

    14 gauge. Nasty to work with. It was formed in the factory, no reason it cant be duplicated. I like the corking tool and guide. Almost as much work to make the tooling as it is to make the part. I bet curving the panel was hard on the wrists, not enough mass to absorb the force.
    Your dislike of filler is showing!
    Amazing work!

Proto was proceeded by the Plomb tool Co. In i132 Plomb changed the numbers of all their tools and the numbering system is still used today. Incidentally your favorite hammer is worth about $50. I have two Ploms and do not want to get rid of either one. Thanks for a good video. David Adair

    Love the way you explain the procedures in your videos.
    Maybe at some point do a video on repairing / maintenance on your vice @ 23:23?
    You talk about making tools out of scrap?
    I noticed you got the material from a shelf of bits you keep just in case.
    Then it’s not scrap!
    It’s only scrap when you toss it in the bin to haul to the salvage yard, or toss it in the trash!!
    Man the attention to detail you take is amazing.
    Like the hole you used a file on @ 41:06 after you welded in the panel.
    I mean no one would ever see it on the car or would ever know!
    “BUT YOU WOULD KNOW!!!!”
    That speaks VOLUMES about your QUALITY!!!!
