A method for replacing an automobile door panel without removing the door from the automobile utilizing a crimping tool is provided. The mirror is removed from the door. An inner section of the damaged door panel is cut out leaving a border around the door frame. The cut out inner section is removed and the handle and lock cylinder on the door are also removed. A plurality of relief cuts are made about the front, bottom and rear surfaces of the border remaining on the door frame. The border is then peeled away from the door frame. A new panel is placed around the front edge of the door frame holding the back end out. The panel is then pushed in and around the remainder of the door frame. The back and the bottom edges of the new panel are then crimped with a hammer and dolly block and the front edge of the door panel is crimped about the door frame with a tool having a dolly block and a guide formed therein, a handle mounted on the dolly block, a pad mounted on the dolly block and a crimper slidably disposed within the guide. The remaining edges of the panel are then welded.
