 INFORMATION SHEET

Work instructions are also called work guides, Standard Operating

Procedures (SOPs), job aids or user manuals, depending on the situation.
In any case, the purpose of work instructions is to clearly explain how a
particular work task is performed. They’re like the step-by-step instructions
we receive when we learn to drive a car: check gear stick is in neutral, start
the ignition, press the clutch, change to first gear and so forth. This
information sheet will show you how to perform bodywork repair step by
step:

Step 1: Gather Tools Needed/Recommended

 Replacement panels
 Acetylene Torch’s
 Safety gloves
 Angle Grinder
 Rivet gu
 AC welder
 Welding rods
 Tack hammer
 Electric Drill
 Various grit sandpapers for each sander (rang from 36 to 1600 grit)
 Tack cloth
 Putty Knife

Step 2: Preparation

1. Before doing any work make sure all materials and tools are gathered
and organized.
2. Have a clean and well-lit workspace.
3. Be sure to be wearing protective clothing when necessary. (Work gloves,
steel toe boots, long sleeve shirt, pants).
4. Read through instructions prior to doing the work, will make work easier
and more understandable.

Step 3: Selecting Area to Cut / Repair

Esclamada, Marven G.
1. Take a replacement piece of metal and size it up against the car. Making sure it is
flush against the car

2. Trace the outline of this piece onto the car. Grab your Chalk/Sharpie and make a line
on the body of where you want to cut. (The area inside the cut will be removed and
replaced). Note: - If the damage is possible to repair by beat with dolly and hammer not
need to cut to replace the damaged parts

Step 4: Cutting Out the Area to Be Replaced Using Acetylene Torch

(wears hand and eye protection)

1. Open the acetylene tank valve ¼ turn. (Keep between 5-8 psi)
2. Open the oxygen tank valve all the way. (Keep between 25- 40 psi)
3. Open the acetylene valve on the torch until you can hear gas escaping.
4. Place the striker in front of the torch and lite.
5. Open the oxygen valve on the torch until the acquired flame is reached.
6. Cut out the selected area on the car.
7. After the area is cut out, using the angle grinder remove any access paint from the
area you are working on, this clean metal surface will allow welding to occur later on.
Using an Angle Grinder (wear hand and eye protection)

Step 5: Fitting Replacement Piece

1. The replacement piece should be the same size as the piece you just cut out.
2. When adding the new piece, make sure it is flush with the original body.

Step 6: Adding Replacement Piece

1. With the new panels now in place, it’s time to permanently join them to the car.
2. First start with the first of the two replacement panels, the one located closer to the
front of the car.
3. Position this piece precisely where you want it, trying to match the original position of
the old piece on the car.
4. When you are satisfied with the position of the panel, use a few pairs of vice grips
and lock the new panel in place.
5. After the piece is in place be certain to check that everything is lined up correctly;
making sure all body lines and mouldings are correct.
6. Now it is time to permanently attach the replacement panel. This can be
accomplished using an Ox-Acetylene or Arc welder, Drill, Drill bits, Rivet gun, and
Rivets.

Step 7: Welding?

1. Before beginning welding make sure you are wearing the proper protective clothes
for welding, Pants, long sleeves, welding gloves, and eye/face protection.
2. Go ahead and make your welds along that top edge, making sure to control speed,
spacing, and movement.
3. After completing your welds, go ahead and grind the welds down with your angle
grinder; this should make the welds flush with the body.

Step 8: Riveting

1. Now it’s time to rivet the remaining edges of the new panels to the car.
2. For this you will need your Drill, Drill bits, Rivet gun, and rivets.
3. Rivets will be spaced 2” away from each other.
4. They will run along the bottom edge of the replacement panel, and in the inner wheel
well area of the panel.
5. First mark where u want the rivets to be.
6. Equip your drill with a 3/16” Drill bit.
7. Pre-drill every place you want a rivet to be at.
8. The entire replacement panel should now be completely attached to the car.

Step 9: Body Filler

1. Open your body filler and put a golf ball-sized amount onto your clean mixing surface.
2. With your wooden mixing stick ready, open up your reactor and squeeze an inch
worth of reactor onto the body filler.
3. Mix until a uniform colour is reached. At this point, you have about 3-5 minutes with
the material before it’s no good to use.
4. Apply with your Plastic applicator evenly over the welds on the panel.

Step 10: Sanding

1. Now with a good buildup of material on the car, it’s time to sand it down to make it
fully blend in.
2. Go ahead and grab a various amount of sandpapers, ranging from 36 to 1600 grit.
3. Also it might be necessary to use sanders, block and hand sanders. For this
particular job, the sanding will be done in that order.
4. While using the bar air sanders apply a horizontal force pushing the sander into the
car. Move the sander in mini X motions while doing the sanding.
5. Repeat this step using higher grit sandpaper.
6. After each pass with higher grit sandpapers the surface should be getting smoother
and smoother.

 INFORMATION SHEET

Identifying Body Panels

Body and Frame Construction

A. Body Construction
Bodies: Passenger cars and truck bodies differ a great deal in construction because of
the different purposes for which they are intended. However, each has an inner and
outer construction. The outer construction is considered that portion of a panel or panels
which is visible from the outside of the vehicle. Included in the inner construction are all
braces, brackets, panels, etc. that are used to strengthen the vehicle body. A general
assumption is that inner construction cannot be seen from the outside of the vehicle.

Body Construction:
The main body components are shown in Figure 1.6. Cowl or dash panel assemblies for
the front end of the body are usually formed by assembling several smaller panels.
These are the cowl upper panel and the cowl side panels that are joined by welds into
one solid unit. The cowl extends upward around the entire windshield opening with the
upper edge of the cowl panel forming the front edge of the roof panel. Windshield pillars
are part of the cowl panel.

I. Roof Panel Assembly. The roof panel is one of the largest body panels, but it is also
one of the simplest in construction. Usually, the roof is a one-piece steel construction

II. Floor Pan Assembly: The floor pan(refers to a floor-related component) is composed
of several smaller panels that are welded together or secured to one another by bolts to
form one single unit, as shown in Figure 1. 7. Most floor plans are irregularly shaped.
They are indented or formed into bends to give strength to the entire floor structure.

III. Rear Quarter Panel. The rear quarter panel is an integral part of the fender. The rear
quarter panel

Esclamada, Marven G.
has both inner and outer construction. The outer construction or outer panel is smooth,
except for the breaks caused by the design of the vehicle. The inner construction of a
rear quarter panel is made up of many strong reinforcement brackets welded or bolted
together to form a single unit.
IV. Doors: Doors are composed of two main panels: outer and inner. Both panels are
normally of all steel construction. Doors derive most of their strength from the inner
panel. The inner panel acts as a frame for the door. It is made with offsets and holes for
the attachment of inner door hardware. The outer panel flanges over the inner panel
edges to form a single unit. It also provides an opening through which the outside
handle protrudes. In some instances, a separate opening is provided for the lock.
V. Deck Lid: The deck lid is another door that allows access to the luggage
compartment. It consists of an outer and inner panel. These panels are spot-welded
together along their flanged edges to form a single unit.
B. Frame (Chassis) Construction.
An understanding of the construction of the frame is extremely important since it is the
foundation on which the vehicle is built. Frames can be constructed from channel stock,
Ibeam, angle, Zstock, tubing, flat plates, or a combination of any two or more of these
stocks. Frame/Chassis includes everything under the body, consisting of the
mechanical systems that support and power the car. In general, there are two types of
frame construction for light duty vehicle

I Uni-body construction welds major body panels together to form the frame for
attaching the engine,
drivetrain, suspension, and other parts. This type of construction is commonly used on
cars. Uni-body
construction uses body parts welded and bolted together uses lighter; thinner, high-
strength steel
alloys Body shell is formed by welding sheet metal into a box- or egg-like configuration.

li . Body-over-frame construction, a thick gauge steel frame provides the foundation for
holding other parts. This type of construction is commonly used on large trucks and
SUVs. Body-over-frame vehicles have separate body and chassis parts bolted to the
frame vehicle is heavier – high amounts of energy are absorbed by the frame in a
collision Figure 1. 9. Two very different methods used to construct modern vehicles:

1. Bonnet (Hood) The hood protects your engine and other essential components of
your truck. Whether you have a rusted or damaged hood, repairing/replacing it is often
relatively easy.
2. Bumper / Energy Absorber / Cover Bumpers are located at the front of the vehicle,
below the front grille. They’re intended to be the first thing to hit an object in front of
them (such as another vehicle) and to minimize the impact and damage to the rest of
the vehicle, minimizing repair costs.
3. Radiator Support/ Header panels Header panels are an important part of the body
that provides support and mounting locations for grille assemblies, radiator and
headlights.
4. Grille The front end of the vehicle has seen considerable developments over the past
few years. The principal function of the grille is to admit cooling air to the car's radiator.
5. Headlamp Headlamp Automotive lighting keeps our families safer. In a moment,
drivers must gauge a vehicle's position, size, and direction of travel.
6. Door The complete truck door is made of several components, but this term refers to
the largest panel and shell. A vehicle’s door panel provides attachment points for
handles and often side-view mirrors as well. Areas at the bottom of doors can trap
water, dirt and debris — especially when drain holes get clogged.
7. Guard (Fender) Fenders typically form an arch — made either of plastic or metal —
on the side of the vehicle body, around each of the wheel cutouts. Rotating tires can
throw lots of water, snow or pieces of debris while driving, so fenders help mitigate
some of this matter.
8. Side Panel (Wheel arch panels) Wheel arch panels receive abuse from grime and
salt. These are the panels that sit above and around the truck wheels. They protect the
rest of the body from moisture and debris thrown by your tires, so they often need to be
replaced after years of use. Manufacturers tend to put foam in between the wheel arch
and the inner wheelhouse, to help limit vibration and noise, but this foam holds moisture
and causes both panels to rust.
9 Tail Gate Located at the very back of your truck, there is no end to the ways you can
damage a tailgate. Whether you back into a post in a parking lot or get rear-ended while
sitting in traffic, tailgates are a commonly damaged component of your vehicle.
10 Mirror A rear-view mirror (or rearview mirror) is a flat mirror in automobiles and other
vehicles, designed to allow the driver to see rearward through the vehicle's rear window
11 Roof Panel The roof panel covers the cab of your truck, and you likely don’t give it
much thought most days. Because it is often out of site, you may not notice rust or other
damage to this panel. Even direct sunlight over prolonged periods can damage your
roof p 12. Truck Bed Floor Your truck bed floor takes a beating – from payloads going in
and out, to salt, water and debris that accumulates in it. Your floor is likely made up of
several different panels. Depending on the damage you may be able to only replace
parts of it or certain panels or supports.
