Default Basic how-to info for metal shaping for automotive projects

Good morning everyone. As I am laid up awaiting back surgery, I have plenty of time to ponder a few projects that I want to do for the 68 Mercury Cougar I am building. The first is a small functional hood scoop to provide a few inches of much needed clearance. Nothing gaudy, but along the lines of s thunderbolt scoop or old mustang scoop. The other is an aluminum shroud for my aluminum radiator. I am looking for some old school literature about hand forming metal (al and steel). I know that I could go out and buy these types of things but I like to learn new skills and I like making things for myself. Any info would be appreciated.
