Triumph TR2 1954: Front fender repair
Переглядів 7 тис.6 місяців тому
Here I make a repair panel for the front fender of a Triumph TR2. I shape the panel on the sand bag, and use the stump to make an easy shrink. Then I smooth the surface and fine fit the panel with the english wheel and the Eckold. My Colleague Sebastien gas weld it with no filler rod, so the weld is soft, tender, easy to stretch back with no crack, invisible, and is also period correct to the car.

    I'm retired now but used to be an Aviation Mechanic for the Department of Defense. I took rivet sets and rounded them to diffend roundsness, from a 3 inch slightly rounded to 1 inch round ball and used a rivet gun to do the same job. Takes a tenth of the time and makes it much smoother, just work to flatter sets and work out the wrinkles and dents. And the wrinkles will create stress cracks and fatigue failure in the metal. This may work on a car, but on Aircraft this is a failed part. It looks nice, but it wount pass a NDI Test for stress fractures.

    Seeing this reminds me of a few years ago when I was in the early stages of building a customised morris minor step-side pick up truck out of a van. I showed the workshop lad how to create an extension for the headlight bowl and after some initial shaping I left him to get on with the other,trying to instill patience into him. He'd previously made some half decent simpler small panels with a bit of guidance so I expected a reasonable job that I would need to fettle. The next day while examining it I noticed that it looked very good,only while looking round did I then figure out that he'd found a headlight bowl in the stores,noticed it matched and cut it up to finish the other bowl for the Minor.Unfortunately what he'd cut up was one of a pair of unused and very,very rare,irreplaceable headlight bowls from a 1930's Jowett! 😂(I wasn't laughing at the time)The worst part about it was that the part that he'd made and then abandoned only needed a bit of finesse to be respectable and usable. It got slightly worse for him two weeks later when he left a repaired and ready to refit door skin on the floor which someone else then ran over.
