Before I started patching this I bought a Ron Covell video on sheet metal forming and watched it a few times. I was blown away by what he did with simple hand tools. He was building a replacement quarter panel and tailpiece for a 1930 something Auburn. About halfway throught the curved tailpeice he was building it was looking like he took a perfectly good piece of metal and beat it into oblivian but I'll be darned if it didnt turn out perfect in the end. Amazing stuff to watch and really satisfying to learn.
