Episode 87 Manic Mechanic

sheet metal fabrication by hand. We do metal shaping using a bench vice, body hammer, and dolly as well as angle iron. Our goal is a clean fabrication of the sheet metal torque box sheet metal on the 1965 Falcon Ranchero. We will be bending, the steel in our workshop. This is a lost art. We use simple metal shaping tools to do car body work. Slowly but surely we are working our way through the rust repair on Rusty the Ranchero
