Let’s Get Started!
Fabrication
The focus on using, repairing and modifying original steel bodies while incorporating reproduction steel parts is essential for maintaining the authentic feel of the vehicle while ensuring durability and functionality.
IMPORTANCE OF ORIGINAL STEEL BODIES
Hot rod enthusiasts often prefer original steel bodies for their projects because these components carry the genuine essence and style of the period from which the vehicle originates. Original bodies provide a base that is historically accurate, which is particularly important for purist restorations or builds that aim to maintain a classic look while integrating modern mechanical components.
DAMAGE AND RUST REPAIR
Given the age of these vehicles, rust and structural damage are common issues. Restoration involves meticulous metalwork by highly skilled craftsmen, including rust removal, metal patching, and sometimes complex structural repairs using period-appropriate techniques and tools.
INCORPORATING REPRODUCTION STEEL PARTS
Reproduction parts play a pivotal role in the restoration and modification of hot rods. These parts are typically manufactured using modern techniques but are designed to replicate the look and fit of original components.
SHAPING AND FORMING
Custom hot rod fabrication might include altering the body shape, chopping the roof, channeling the body over the frame, or fabricating custom panels. This requires a deep understanding of metal properties and mastery in metal shaping, forming and welding techniques.
FITTING AND FINISHING
Every modification must be perfectly aligned and fitted to ensure not only the visual appeal but also the functional integrity of the vehicle. This includes the careful alignment of doors, hoods, and other moving parts, as well as the fine finishing that will prepare the body for painting and detailing.
