Evening all

My Dad is keen to try some panel beating on his old Ford Pop which has been a hotrod project for lets say a little while. He has a birthday coming up and I was thinking about getting him a set.

Are these worth the money? Or would he be better off with something a bit less PRO..

Thanks again all

i think he would love them mate very nice bit of kit or you could get blue point set but the price mite be a little ugly lol

Exact set I have, good quality, and more than useful. Tip! keep the dollies well oiled, I found that they rust just looking at them, my workshop is a bit on the damp side, :-) HTH Ray

Sykes Pickavant tools are among the best you can get and would be a really nice present; durable and very long lasting.

David Gardiner has produced an excellent DVD on panel beating and vehicle restoration. In it, he uses only hand tools to produce some amazing results.
