In today's video we will be repairing all the dents in the roof panel and rear body panel on the 1953 Chevy Chicken Truck project. I will show how to remove dents on high crown panels, as well as badly damaged low crown panels. Then I will use the Proshaper shrinking disk to help level out the surface.

I have watched dozens of Hammer on & off Videos but I have never seen it so well explained. Excellent! Thank You.

@nicolasstanley1392 7 месяцев назад

dude, you've blown my mind again. thanks for a simple, practical explanation of the basics.

Kyle... never in all my born days would I ever thought I would Learn So Much from Watching Someone Knock Out Dents let alone Finding It Entertaining too!!!

@lemontier 7 месяцев назад

I think that this was one of your best teaching videos. You showed that it takes analysis to understand what you need to do. Read the panel and move cautiously across the panel bringing the damaged areas up or down a little at a time. I have a rear panel like yours but in much worse condition. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and the inspiration.

The reflection on bare steel was impressive.

@matthewstrickland1773 7 месяцев назад

Just an outside perspective view, sometimes, more often then not, you tend to fail to realize that you're a teacher and a leader in autobody repair and restoration. Yes we understand that you still have a long ways to go to get to where you want to be. Personally, we don't care. As far as we're concerned your like this sheet metal wizard that makes literal magic happen before our eyes as you bang on garbage with various hammers.

@briankarnowski5614 7 месяцев назад

Well done young man! How much time would you say you invested in getting that back panel to that point? Myself, I'd much rather spend the time manipulating the metal than I would sculpting bondo!

Smoking jacket indeed 😂

@bluesman6955 7 месяцев назад

Excellent video. I appreciate you sharing your thought process during the repairs. You are a born teacher!

All I have to say, if the viewers didn't learn anything today, it's their own fault. Nice work as always. I'll sit through an hour of classic builds from a knowledgeable source anytime.

@bradpage8967 7 месяцев назад

Wow!! A ton of work in that rear lower cab panel!! As always you made it look great!! Thanks for the tips!! Even though I have watched the other videos, it was a good refresher course!! Chop away!!

@lancegates9159 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for the explanation of how you tackle the dents , I only wish I could bring you my 31 Chevy , but this was helpful and gives me more confidence to try and do it . Enjoy your channel !

@scottkucharyshen1981 7 месяцев назад

Kyle you have taken what we taught you to a whole new level. It is so nice to hear you are employing the “order of repair of a dent” then taking that to “in relation to quality and speed is all dependent on the rough out”! Your expanded roughout methods are now being taught to new students. Great work! Keep it up!

@CarterAutoRestyling 7 месяцев назад

Thanks Scott! I should have paid more attention in school. There would be a lot less fumbling around and struggling on my behalf haha

@Freedomquest08 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for the detailed dent removal tutorial. Metal shrinking is where I bring out all the cuss words. Might be worth trying a shrinking disc setup.

@robray6408 7 месяцев назад

@ronaldeisel5927 7 месяцев назад

Hey Kyle: This was one of you most educational videos yet! You might include a screenshot of the panel(s) before and after for us dullards out here in RU-vid land so we can better apperciate your skill .

@preston1865 7 месяцев назад

Thanks! This was a top notch instructional video. I feel as though I attended a super class in basic dent repair! The diagrams of straightening a dent were great! The camera demonstrations made the procedures clear.

@heyartbailey 7 месяцев назад

Thanks, Kyle, for sharing your hard won knowledge. This video is the best explanation of how to go about ironing out a lot of damage, in a methodical way, that I've found here on RU-vid. It's also the first I've found that actually describes an order of operations, instead of just "let's bang out this dent." (UPDATE: Kyle talks about the order of operations at the very top of "How I Fix Dents:The Cheap, Easy Way." two years ago. I watched this at least twice...my parents always said "...you just don't listen..." Sorry, Kyle.) Those kinds of videos are helpful, too, but most of us with garbage cars are dealing with much more than just one dent. I learned a ton...what a nice holiday gift! Thanks, man! All the best to you in the new year.

@jeffryblackmon4846 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for the chalk talk on the various techniques for dent removal. It's very helpful. Moving around that back panel reminds me of a Whack-A-Mole toy.

@gwstubbs7046 3 месяца назад

I am working on my 1956 Mercury pick up. The roof was caved in when I got it, no doubt by a Saskatchewan Wildebeest. All my autobody education has come from you. So if I fail it's on your shoulders. LOL

Nicely done on El Camino Pollo, Kyle. I think Wray Schelline would agree. I appreciated the body work lesson at the beginning. You're a good teacher.

@richardwyatt8979 7 месяцев назад

There ha to be an immense sense of satisfaction being able to take a beat up rear panel like that and turn it into a usable piece . I always admire your skills and appreciate your detailed explanations of how and why you do things. Keep up he good work and look forward to seeing how the truck progresses.

@joewolf4483 7 месяцев назад

Kyle You are the master body man that I have started to use when I judge how bodywork is being done. I think that Santa will make a stop at your shop because you have gave a lot of joy to us You tubers Wish you a Merry Christmas, keep on giving us these videos this coming year.

@TCW-hw6iw 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for the tips on slappers and shrinking disc's, although I still haven't a clue as to how a disc's does what it does. It will give me something to do on Christmas Day. The rear panel looks awesome, very impressive. Have a Merry Christmas yourself, make sure the cats get lots of catnip or other organic stuff, wink wink nod nod. Cats are such stoners.

@otisgullickson6429 7 месяцев назад

@Eggwelder 7 месяцев назад

Watching you drill out all those spot welds kinda vindicates me drilling out hundreds of spot welds on my ‘58 Pontiac in an effort to gain access to get rust out from factory seams, and of course to knock dents out. Still got to weld the hood back together, been chasing a high spot in the front of the hood for a long time, and am getting tempted to cut it out and patch it. Very frustrating endeavour, and have many more spots to drill as i work my way to the rear quarters and trunk.

@alunhuang-wright3030 7 месяцев назад

Superb. I need to watch that tutorial again. It makes me think you may be missing a trick. Surely there is a market for your dent removal techniques, or classes run by you on the subject.

@Chevypowered5766 7 месяцев назад

Another great video I love the way you explain not only the how to of doing something , but the how and what is happening to the metal when you reshape it how you want it. While I listen to you teaching a lesson I think back to a body man who was an instructor I had for about a year and a half talking in such detail. He used to say you have to know what is going on with what you’re working with before you can make it into anything you need. Later

@SergioRodriguez-ss4lm 7 месяцев назад

You explained it awesome in which I would never do 😊

@johnwesner3935 7 месяцев назад

Hey Kyle, this video is timed perfectly. Just this morning I pulled the RF fender off my 65 f350. All sorts of challenges. Rust holes, severe creased dent and other small dents. I've perfected over working and stretching creating additional work that I'm not qualified to perform. I really have picked up several tips from today's video. Thanks and Merry Christmas!

@user-yp8ky8us3s 7 месяцев назад

@philynuku914 7 месяцев назад

Hi Kyle, I just wanted to thankyou for being a great teacher. I have just finished my 1st repair on my daughters Harley guard, it was dented & fairly distorted but through watching your material, the acquisition of a few simple tools & a great deal of patience- I'm glad to say it's now repaired to its former glory. Thankyou Kyle- you do make a difference & merry Christmas from New Zealand. 👍

@CarterAutoRestyling 7 месяцев назад

Right on! I'm so glad to hear that these videos have helped you out! Merry Christmas!

@greggclaussen 7 месяцев назад

Dig the face in the panel at 44:28 Merry Christmas too!

@paulnewton943 7 месяцев назад

Even when you know the order I still find myself on a high crown like the top of the guard. There is just something cathartic about doing that spot first. Thanks Kyle I love these long ones. Merry Christmas to you the family. Looking forward to the next installment.

@kdiamond3623 7 месяцев назад

Thank you sir for that awesomeness! Merry Christmas to you and the kitties.

@dustcommander100 4 месяца назад

I'll have to say I NEEDED that video!!! I consider that to be an important tool I will refer to in the future. I noticed that you seem (a little) to be left-handed, but you are actually able to work with both hands. I know there's a word for that, but I just don't like it. I know there's a word you don't like, too - it's "can't". And you certainly can. Anyways, you should be proud to work that way. I've been practicing for many years, and can usually work with either hand, but not as good when striking with a hammer or using a baseball bat. I can't wait to get started on my project car, but I'm building a workshop now, and my parents require my help very often. You certainly deserve to be proud of your results!
