Steps to make a panel: 1952 Cadillac Convertible

We're back at the convertible and we have a plinth panel that needs to much work to restore so Wray is building it from scratch. Mark starts off with making a flexible shape pattern of the good half. He then makes gauges out of cardboard to ensure we have the right flow. He makes sure to add all the information he can to both the F.S.P. and the gauges. He then adds the clear tape to seal the F.S.P. Wray then uses the information provided and cuts out two sheet metal blanks for the right and left half of the plinth panel. Reading the flexible shape pattern he notices two spots that will need to add more area. Using the caulking tool, some clay and a ball peen hammer he brings out the area of those two spots. I wish we had more in this video, but Wray went over in detail his thought process on how to go about fabricating the panel. This most likely will be a 3 part video series and we hope you enjoy!
