Before you build, make sure your foundation is strong, and that includes sheetmetal repair. (http://www.mustangandfords.com/techarticles/body/mdmp_1208_sheetmetal_repair_thick_skinned/index.html)Of the many cool things that we can do to our hot rods, sheetmetal replacement is definitely not on the list, or at least it may reside at the very bottom. Other than the satisfaction of knowing that your car is solid, it doesn't really make your car go any faster or sound any cooler, and looking better is relative to what your car looked like before you welded in the new metal--oftentimes you've screwed up a decent paintjob just to install a front fender or quarter-panel patch. With most of these cars having reached 40-plus years of age, the vast majority of them will need some sheetmetal repair, unless you buy a car that has already had the work done or one that is possibly a survivor from the southwestern United States.
