Really helpful watching your vids as I’m an Autobody apprentice

[@AUTOBODYTECH]

Right on! Hope you're enjoying the trade. Is there anything you would like to see in a video?

[@aidanramirez3357]

@@AUTOBODYTECH not really, your channel touches a little bit of everything that I’m learning right now

[@ashramdhan1582]

Hey those keys are they for light pull only ? I see one other technician uses metal plates he welds on with a mig welder instead. I used the key method before put they keep pulling out.

[@AUTOBODYTECH]

Ever since I used them, I haven't had to mig weld a plate. It also pulls way better than welding a plate because it pulls the low spots first. The closer together and more keys you put, the more likely the keys won't fall off. Check out this short for another pull with the keys kzbin.info-qVymqnK1qE?feature=share

What was the weld for at 6:04? And when you pulled with the keys the first time did you have to sit the metal from inside the door jamb?

[@AUTOBODYTECH]

Sometimes, the keys tear off while pulling, so I was welding up the tears. Depending how badly it is damaged I normally pull with the door on until the gap is nice and flush, then I'll knock the crowns on the inner afterward. If it's giving me resistance, then I'll pull with the door open and knock the crowns while pulling. Hope that makes sense

You do excellent metal work. Very nice job

[@va1erie1]

Can you give some concept to the time spent on this? How many labor and paint hours for the total repair?

[@AUTOBODYTECH]

I would say about 2 days body and assembly labor and half day for prep and paint

[@Pie4life123]

Not replacing metal means it’s just weaker take a paper clip bend it a few times the strength goes down same thing here

[@theshark2804]

For a classic yeah. Not really that important for a car that will be off the roads in 10years.

[@lilBabyBornInCalifornia]

whats the cost of something like this?

[@AUTOBODYTECH]

Around 2000$
