Been working on the back of the cab on my 37. It looks like a load of rods slid forward and peppered the back of the cab. Some dents looked almost like bullet holes that didn't go all the way thru. These I drilled out and welded a plug into, the shallower ones I hammered out. Some actually came out too far and I think I may have overworked the metal. Now I have two bulges that are oil canned. I tried a shrinking disc but as soon as I hit them with the disc, they pop in. Is trying to shrink them the way to go? Should I heat with a torch? I'm starting to get a little frustrated. Any ideas? Thanks...

Thanks Tiny, when I did a search I came up with 40 pages and it started out with motor oil capacities. I'd still be going through them.

Everyone who's doing any bodywork on an old vehicle needs THIS BOOK. I'd heard about it so decided to get one... it came today and it's FULL of information on auto body repair from the same time period as our Bolts.

Best $11 you'll spend on your project.
