A lot of pieces for the body are still availability as aftermarket replacement panels. Some things however either need to be cut out of a donor car or you need to fabricate them yourself. I felt like giving it a shot at fabricating the pieces myself but didn’t really know we’re to start. I watched a bunch of videos and read some articles and in the end I found that you either need to buy a lot of fancy presses and tools to make the job easy, or that with some time, patience and a lot of hammering you can fold and manipulate the sheet metal with only two basic tools, a hammer and a dolly. These two tools can be used together to make just about any shape you want, as well as bring beat up and battered pieces back to life. I don’t have a crazy workshop or a fancy workbench either, just basic stuff, and with this I managed to bang out a few custom bits in a few hours. Granted they are not perfect but they fit well and will take only a small about of filler to smooth out the imperfections.
