Austin-Healey 3000: Can it be saved?

As you well know, Wray a month or so ago bought out the contents of a coachbuilding shop. We have a multitude of panels from different cars but we came across this Austin-Healey 3000 shroud which is really crumpled on the passenger side. This is a great opportunity to show how with very simple and inexpensive tools, you can bring a panel back to it's original state (or as close to it). Wray with the help of Eric takes a piece of angle iron, bends it and drills holes in it corresponding to the shroud so when we bolt it on and use a hammer pull, the impact is spread out. Wray and Eric use a torch to move the process along and also using a mallet and the hammer pull to unfold the aluminum. Wray also uses a block of wood and a blacksmithing hammer to help arrange the smaller folds that require a slightly more delicate touch. This is hopefully an enjoyable video for you guys / gals, let us know if there is anything you might want to see in future videos!

Also don't forget about the 10-Day Apprenticeship contest going on right now! See details at https://www.proshaper.com/proshaper-contest/
