Default Re: Straightened a chassis yesterday

Glad to see you guys have learn't the first lesson about body and frame repair. Give one job to six different tech's and they all will do the job. Maybe six different ways but they will get it done. Good, bad or whatever!! I've learn't this after 20 years of teaching and doing this trade. And yes I understand metal and how it works. I wrote a book on it!!! And I've had great discussions on mild steel and if it can be damaged or hardened with heat and cooling. Does it change,doesn't change? All I know is that by heat shrinking the metal it becomes harder to hammer because the molecules become locked up or shrunk!!

My two cents worth: The Old Tinbasher.
