Straightening the Shroud on an Austin-Healey 3000

The ProShaper team wish you all a very Merry Christmas!
I hope you enjoyed the outtakes in the beginning. Wray can explain how to build a car from scratch all in 1 take but take 5 or 6 tries to get the ending right. That's the best part of filming! We tried to get rolling early on this latest video and our original plan was to use the frame machine to straighten the shroud. Then we realized not everyone has one so we tried to use random things that are easily accessible to all, this took us 2 hours and we started filming by 10pm. So with our system of using a come along, and a bunch of wood to lock the shroud to the table while using a 4x4 as a lever we attempted to see if we could make it work. As you can see we had some great progress! There was a dent in the back so using heat and a slapper we brought is down which also helped twist it back in to place. At the end Wray looks over the shroud, hits down the high spots and dents and shows how well the gauge fits at this point in time.

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