You all have been really great at answering the questions I have asked regarding my ‘36 pickup that I am building. So I thought I would share what I’m working on this weekend. On my cab, the back panel and roof of my pickup is rough. The damage to my back panel comes up higher than the replacement panels would cover so here is my process I used to build a replacement.

I started out by cutting out my panel and adding some compound shape to it with a sheetmetal power hammer that is only 5 years newer than the truck. I used a couple of body sweeps to check the shape to make sure it’s the same shape as the original. The power hammer does a great job of adding a low crown to the panel without leaving any hammer marks.
