Re: 72 auto square
Stunning work chap!
Keep it up, very inspirational.
I know it was a while back now (way back on page 2), but can I ask how you re-created the rear valance indents in your repair panel, they look superb!

Re: 72 auto square
Hi I can remember I used a vice set at the correct width then gently hammers them inwith a 10 mm deep reach snap on socket ,then gentley bent the swage into it ,then tidyed up with a small air grinder and dremmel...
Hope this helps Jon..
Also looking back at the photos you can see a weird sqaure washer stair I made up to hammer in the straight edges....
