Here is a tutorial how to video that show.

Car hood sheet metal forming.

Whether it s as complex as hammering and forming a deuce quarter panel from scratch or as we re about to show bending up a custom model 40 hood from sheet aluminum there s not much you can t. 1 blanking 2 stretch. For automotive metal forming the blank is often made of sheet metal which can be stamped cut or bent into a shape needed for an automobile s body. The invention discloses a manufacturing process of a car hood and relates to the field of car manufacturing.

In sheet metal forming the final shape of a part is made from a flat metal sheet. The desired shape is achieved through plastic deformation without undergoing any machining like milling. The blank becomes the workpiece the piece of metal to be reshaped in the metal forming process. Sheet metal is a huge part of any hotrod build or autobody repair.

Alternatively it can be a solid block of metal in a cubical or lens like shape. Whether you re fixing a dent rust hail etc. The manufacturing process comprises the following steps. The sheet metal used for automobile panel fabrication and for some panel support structures is a highly evolved and complex series of alloys based in the steel family.
