Hi Wes,
Firstly the body will be aluminium. so care should be taken not to remove paint with a buff or grinder. better to chemically remove paint, because aluminium is soft.
If the repaired areas have welds through them where new part panels have been fitted, be careful of the weld areas when repairing them as the welds could crack due to thin metal and work hardening. I suggest annealing the repair area before attempting any repair.
also if you have to reweld any areas by oxy acetylene welding, make sure you remove ALL flux from both sides of the panel as it is corrosive and will in time eat through the alloy.
As far as DVD's are concerned, there are a lot of DVD's around with good information on repairs,making panels and welding.
