Soft cover. Condition: Good. First Edition. This is the first edition of Petersen's collaboration with HOT ROD Magazine! Basic Bodywork and Painting is a practical, photo-driven guide to traditional automotive bodywork, written from the perspective of hands-on shop experience rather than theory. The author, LeRoi 'Tex' Smith, frames the craft as both a technical discipline and an artistic pursuit, shaped by early exposure to custom-car shops and race-car fabrication in the Bay Area. The book walks readers through the foundational skills required to repair, shape, and finish automotive sheet metal, beginning with basic hammer-and-dolly work and progressing through welding, panel replacement, alignment, slicing techniques, and aluminum shaping. The text emphasizes the importance of understanding metal behavior, accurate measurement, and the use of bucks, forms, and patterns to create complex curves. Later chapters shift into fiberglass work, priming, painting, custom finishes, and race-car paint considerations. Hundreds of step-by-step photographs illustrate real craftsmen forming panels, repairing dents, fitting new skins, and building custom bodies from scratch. Rather than promising mastery, the book positions itself as a gateway into the mindset and methods of professional body men - a bridge between curiosity and competence - offering time-tested techniques, shop wisdom, and the confidence to attempt repairs or custom builds at home. This classic shows tips, tricks and how-to's on all sorts of paint and body modifications! Great photos of vintage automobiles and classic racing cars!
