Panel Repair and Fabrication for Vehicle Restorers

Although it can seem daunting, constructing sheet metal panels by hand is very much within the scope of the amateur restorer working from their own home workshop with the minimum of equipment. Often panels that are sold to replace the originals on historic and classic vehicles are not a good fit. Therefore, to achieve a more accurate fit, making your own panels can be the best solution.

This accessible book shows how to make, repair and fit sheet metal body panels for historic and classic vehicles.

Panel Repair and Fabrication for Vehicle Restorers is authored by Bruce Macleod, who initially learned his craft from his father, a trained coachbuilder. Bruce has a lifetime's experience that covers all aspects of vehicle body construction and repair. As a highly regarded authority in his craft, Bruce has trained countless professionals and amateurs in the techniques of making body panels and the restoration of vehicle bodies. He has previously authored Welding for Vehicle Restorers.

The book includes 380 illustrations.
