More than a decade ago, my '67 Mustang hardtop needed floor pans, torque box, frame rail extensions, quarter panels, trunk floor extensions, cowl vent dams, and more. Because I could not afford to pay someone to do all of this sheet metal work, I had to learn how to do it myself. Because I did have welding experience, I knew how to strike a pretty good arc and get metal to flow without blowing a hole. It was learning how to fabricate and replace steel panels that took a learning curve. Quite frankly, I was fearful of making a mistake I could not reverse, that is, until I asked myself what the worst that could happen was. If I botched it up, I could always do it over again and who'd know?
So dare to take a chance with your talents and abilities. The Eastwood Company has just about anything imaginable for the home restorer. Eastwood provided me with a Lincoln MIG welder (110 volt) and everything necessary to replace steel panels. Every phase of sheet metal replacement went well, but was not easy to accomplish. Some had to be done over, which is how I learned how to do it right the second time.
