In detail: DIY 2106 body repair from a real master for the site my.housecope.com.
The first copies of the VAZ 2106 car began to drive around Russian roads in 1976, and many still have them. This publication is devoted to the characteristics of the body of this car and the issues of its repair.
The body elements of the VAZ 2106 are made by stamping and connected to each other by welding. "Skeleton", or its frame is formed by a sub-engine frame, mud flaps, floor panels, rear and front parts, reinforcing cross-members, sills and other details.
The body structure is four-door, type - sedan. Removable elements include the trunk lid, hood, fuel tank hatch and doors with sliding windows.
Front and rear bumpers are chrome-plated, have plastic sidewalls and rubber bumpers. All glass in the VAZ 2106 car is polished, three-layer windscreen, others are hardened. If desired, the rear can be equipped with a heating system.
The floor in the VAZ 2106 car body has a molded carpet with a waterproof backing, and noise and thermal insulation pads are located under it. The interior of the trunk is covered with molded plastic.
On the panel in the passenger compartment of a VAZ 2106 car there are:
group of devices;
heating and ventilation control;
cigarette lighter and ashtray;
shelf and compartment for things.
The body doors are formed by inner and outer panels, connected to each other along the perimeter by welding. The locks are rotary-type devices and are equipped with an opening lock. The hood of the body is also closed with a lock, which has a cable drive and a saloon handle. The structure of the boot lid is similar to the bonnet. On the inside, the door panels are treated with mastic with bitumen and finished with upholstery.

Many craftsmen do body repairs of the VAZ 2106 with their own hands. This is permissible for minor injuries, experience and a suitable tool. It is better to trust the professionals to restore the body geometry.
When steel body elements are made at the plant, a press machine is used, under the influence of which a certain tension is formed between the iron molecules, which preserves the configuration of one or another part. If the shape of the body parts is broken, this indicator changes, and the purpose of the repair is to restore the tension belt in this place by means of the impact method. For such leveling of the body, including with your own hands, special straightening hammers should be used, some of which have a rubber surface.
The restoration of the body shape of a VAZ 2106 car is carried out in two stages: the first is punching out with a wooden mallet, the second is straightening with soft hammers to avoid linear expansion of the metal.
Carrying out repairs, paint and varnish coating and soil are removed from the surface in the damaged area and the change in the shape of the metal is leveled (see video). In the presence of shallow defects of a large area, their repair is carried out by blows of a straightening hammer at the upper point of deformation.
In the case where the dent is small but deep, the alignment is carried out starting from the edges. An anvil of a similar shape is placed under the element to be repaired. An example of repair is clearly presented in the video at the end of the publication.
In the case when the deformation is small and has the shape of a bubble, then the heating method can be used - after cooling, the metal in this part takes on its original shape. However, such manipulation cannot be carried out more than three times, and if it is ineffective, one should resort to other alignment methods.
Bodywork, both in the workshop and with your own hands, often requires the use of a putty, which is designed to eliminate irregularities. It is important to achieve its minimum thickness, otherwise cracks may appear in this part of the body. The thinner the layer of putty, the more correctly the main straightening work was carried out before this.
Simple locksmith hammers should not be used to reconfigure the car body, as their working surface creates a lot of pressure on the surface. This leads to a thinning of the part and to linear expansion of the metal and the possibility of new irregularities.
At the end of the article, we suggest watching a video about repairing a VAZ 2106 with your own hands.
VIDEO Body plumage of the car VAZ 2106
The current technical equipment of body workshops makes it possible to restore the plumage of passenger cars after accidental damage of varying severity. Modern equipment of body shops is high-tech and does not leave post-accident defects that can lead to metal oxidation and the formation of corrosion on the plumage subjected to repair and restoration work
Body work should include the following types of work:
All types of work are carried out at the service station, it is also possible to repair the body of a VAZ 2106 with your own hands, a video clip of which is posted on our website.
In the broad sense of the meaning of this technological operation, straightening seems to be the final type of work to eliminate damage to the body and consists in giving the body part to the factory configuration or close to it. Indeed, the thickness of the layer of auto putty applied to the damaged area and, as a result, the quality of the paintwork layer during the repair of the VAZ 2106 depends on the correct work to restore damage to the body. When carrying out straightening work, it is important to bring the putty layer to such a condition that its thickness is minimal. ... If the layer has a thickness exceeding the maximum permissible value, cracks may appear at the repaired site.
Attention: The process of straightening and applying a leveling putty is the final one before applying paintwork, according to its results, the price of the bodywork carried out during the repair of the VAZ2106 body at a service station is determined.
Reverse hammer for body work, used for straightening the body
Anvils of various configurations are tools for bodywork on the VAZ 2106, which for the most part correspond to the factory images of the part to be straightened. The bodyworker's arsenal should contain special hammers of various types and weights. Special straightening hammers differ from locksmith grooved hammers and are similar to the working plane of a file. In addition, the mechanics - bodyworkers in their working range also have hammers with a rubber percussion part, which serve to soften the impact.
Full instructions for body work of the VAZ 2106 can be found here. With correct adherence to the rules of straightening work, the required result for the restoration of body parts will be achieved.
Anvils should only be used with the appropriate configuration.
Even when using special hammers for straightening, from the impact of this tool, the metal will change its physical properties, becoming thinner and changing its linear dimensions. Therefore, the blows should be weak, but frequent.
If there are folds on the repaired surface, then it is necessary to start surface restoration from them, with the direction of movement towards the center of the defect.
Every few strokes, it is necessary to assess the condition of the metal being restored by touch, check the condition of irregularities and defects, and with this in mind, adjust the process of working with the body metal.
Attention: When restoring large, flat parts of the bodywork, such as the roof, bonnet and boot lid, check the product using measuring instruments.

If the defective surface is large, but shallow, then to level it, blows with a straightening hammer should be applied to the upper point of unevenness. If the defective surface is small, but of sufficient depth, then straightening is performed in parts, starting the restoration from the edges of the deformed surface.
Attention: If the deformed area is small in size and takes the form of a bubble, then this defect can be eliminated by heating. When the surface cools, the bubble should “dissolve”. It is not recommended to do more than 2-3 heating of such points.
Attention: If it is impossible to use automatic welding in places that are difficult to access, when you are in the deformation zone of sectional elements, such as posts, gaskets, etc., a connection such as soldering is used. To do this, the metal surface must be cleaned, and the dent must be filled with tin solder. Excess solder residues are removed and the surface is sanded
With the help of automatic welding, it is also possible to carry out restoration by heating the metal and removing dents. This technology is based on the principle of instant heating of the metal surface.
The appearance of corrosion, numerous chips, dents and microcracks on the paintwork is not a complete list of problems that the owners of VAZ 2106 cars have to face. Despite the complexity of many damages, they are repaired by their own hands.
Body repair VAZ 2106 has the following types:
Redecorating.The paint and varnish coating, bumpers are restored, scratches, chips and foci of corrosion are eliminated.
Treatment of internal cavities. Side members, sills, door and luggage niches are difficult to access for anti-corrosion treatment. To prevent the parts from rusting, they are treated with special protective agents.
Car bottom treatment. The working surface is covered with special protective mastics.
Removing dents. Various impact pads, spoons, hooks, suction cups and reverse hammers are used to level the dented area.
Body overhaul. It is carried out in case of violation of the geometry of the vehicle body, excessive damage to the paintwork, the presence of a large number of dents, chips and scratches. Also, a major overhaul is necessary when corrosion spreads over more than 50% of the surface area of the vehicle body.
When carrying out restoration work, take into account the specifics of the car body.
Lada of the sixth model has a sedan body type, it consists of a main supporting all-metal frame and various attachments. Units and parts that are installed on models from the classic series are made with the stamping method, and are interconnected by welded seams.
The body includes the following parts: engine frame, front fenders, roof, floor panels, left and right sidewalls. The front and rear bumpers are chrome-plated; they are attached to the body with special brackets. The trunk and hood are quite bulky.
As for the doors, they are made of two panels: external and internal, they are connected by welding. Both front and rear doors have the same type of attachment to the body.
On the six models produced in the mid 90s and early 2000s, the body metal is thinner compared to cars that were produced between 1976 and 1990.
Numerous chips and scratches, dents, the appearance of corrosion require timely elimination. The body repair of the VAZ 2106 is performed using straightening: dents are leveled, rust removed and the paintwork of the car body is restored.
To complete the work, you need to prepare the vehicle, and stock up on the necessary set of tools. Before straightening, assess the degree of damage to the car body, wash, dry and degrease the working surface.
To carry out work on the restoration of the body of the "six", we need the following set of tools:
A set of hammers of different types and weights. Rubber mallets and percussion tools with grooved working surface.
Special hooks.
Reverse hammers.
Impact spoons.
Jack.
Anvils and substrates in various shapes and sizes.
You should also stock up on wrenches for 8 and 22, as well as a screwdriver. You will need these tools to remove schematic bodywork such as bumpers or decorative moldings.
The body straightening of the VAZ 2106 is performed immediately before painting the restored part:
The surface to be treated is cleaned of dirt, washed, dried and degreased. Remove old paint from the work surface.
With frequent, gentle hammer blows, the dent is smoothed out. If the defect is deep, then the process is performed from the edge of the damage, and gradually moves to its center. Metal substrates are placed on the reverse side of the area to be restored. They must be properly shaped.
Metal breaks are repaired using a welding machine. Next, the weld is grinded.
The area restored from damage is covered with putty. It levels the work surface.
The putty part is sanded and painted.
The putty should be applied in a thin layer. Otherwise, the paint will become covered with numerous cracks and begin to fall off.
Thresholds on a VAZ 2106 in the course of long-term operation of the car become covered with rust and, as a result, rot. To replace damaged body elements, the following sequence of actions is performed:
They remove the doors, remove the rugs, dismantle the aluminum plate.
Remove the rusted body element. To do this, use sills, dismantle with a drill, and cut out of the mount with a grinder.
They clean the work surface from dirt, remove rust.
Next comes the installation of new thresholds. For this, the connector is welded in place of the dismantled parts.
After adjusting the elements to size, they are welded to the car body.
At the end of the work, an overlay is attached to the thresholds, it is primed and painted.
When performing repair work to replace thresholds, wash the pad, remove corrosion from it, remove the old paint and primer.
When carrying out a do-it-yourself overhaul of the VAZ 2106 body, first of all, you need to pay attention to the condition of the car bottom, including the side members. They represent the main load-bearing element of the entire structure. On a car, they are located on the bottom, and are the length of the entire vehicle.
The side members can be displaced as a result of violation of the geometry of the body, and burst due to mechanical damage. If the part is displaced, it is "restored" in place. To do this, use a jack or cable, which is tied to a post or tree, and the other end of the rope is fixed to the spar. Then the car is pulled with small jerks, and the element being straightened is tapped with a hammer. After completion of the work, additional beams are welded to the side members, since the restored part requires reinforcement.
Corroded elements are cleaned to remove dirt and corrosion. With the help of a welding machine, metal patches are made on the surface, welded seams are ground and the part is processed. Also, by welding, the cracks of the side members are eliminated.
To increase the durability of the VAZ 2106 car body, the body, bottom and hidden cavities are treated with special compounds. Anti-corrosion agents are divided according to the area of their application:
Movies are suitable for the treatment of cavities.
Wax mastics, PVC compounds or "liquid" plastics are used to treat the surface of the car body.
Bottom anticorrosives - bituminous and oil mastics.
When performing rust protection, a number of nuances are taken into account:
To gain access to the hidden cavities of the car, use standard technological holes, or drill them yourself. In this case, the cavities are plugged to protect against negative environmental influences.
When corrosion appears, it is removed with a metal brush, and only then anticorrosive is applied to the rusty place.
Car processing is performed as a prevention of the appearance of corrosion and rust.

VAZ 2106 is one of the oldest domestic models, it began to be produced in 1976, and only in 2006 the car finally rolled off the assembly line. The car is repairable and reliable, which allows you to repair the vehicle yourself.
Do-it-yourself VAZ 2106 body repair is caused by the desire to restore the vehicle after an accident or damage of varying severity. On the VAZ 2106, body repair is carried out according to the instructions. The car owner is advised to first familiarize himself with the types of bodywork, their nuances of carrying out, learn more about the applicable tools, and so on.
ATTENTION! Found a completely simple way to reduce fuel consumption! Don't believe me? An auto mechanic with 15 years of experience also did not believe until he tried it. And now he saves 35,000 rubles a year on gasoline! Read more"
These works are classified as bodywork:
Restoration of the standard, factory structure of an automobile body. It is noteworthy that when the geometry is displaced, machine malfunctions and an increase in fuel consumption are possible. It becomes extremely difficult to control the vehicle. All this cannot but affect safety: the wrong body carries the danger and prerequisites for new accidents;
Painting.These works are carried out after the restoration of the body geometry. It is customary to distinguish between full and partial painting. The latter type of work is also called selective painting and involves the treatment of small defects in individual body components;
Polishing. It is carried out as part of a body restoration program. It is necessary if the paintwork has a lot of damage, such as scratches and defects;
Rust control. This implies a complete treatment of those areas of the car that have already been corroded. The body section is cleaned from rust to the metal surface. Special converters are used;
Fighting dents with special technology. It involves completely straightening body sections without damaging the paint. It is noteworthy that after this work there are no traces of restorative manipulations;
Processing of bumpers;
Thresholds and their repair. Mainly attention is focused on the places for the jack;
Welding works;
Stack work. In this case, it means the restoration of the body after an accident using a special unit;
Straightening, which is the main type of bodywork.
The body of the "six" consists of a large number of materials forged by stamping and connected to each other by welding. The following features make it stand out:
Bumpers are chrome-plated and equipped with rubber or plastic bumpers;
Floor with waterproof backing;
The doors are formed by panels;
The roof and bonnet have a similar design.
Do-it-yourself restoration of the "six" body is possible if minor damage is evident. If we are talking about changing the geometry of the body, it is better to entrust the work to the pros.
So, the purpose of the repair when restoring the body is to bring body parts back to normal with the help of blows. Specific straightening hammers with a rubber head are very helpful in this matter. Note. Restoration is carried out, as a rule, in two stages: first, a punch is made with a wooden mallet, and then straightening.
It is the straightening that should be given more attention if the body of the "six" needs to be given its original appearance.
What does the word "straightening" mean? It translates as alignment. As mentioned above, body straightening is considered the main work and its goal is to restore deformed areas or the entire body.
Straightening, as you know, involves a special technique. It is performed efficiently and quickly. The goal is to stretch or align the concave body parts. If the person conducting the straightening has little experience, it will be very difficult for him to cope with the work.
On the other hand, thanks to modern technology, even a beginner can handle straightening. That only there is a pneumatic hammer, which allows you to quickly bring the body part back to normal.
Common tools for straightening are hammer and jack. Here's how the main stages of straightening are carried out:
First, the paint is removed;
The site is being straightened;
The site is putty and rubbed.
Note. Some experts recommend heating the body parts to make the straightening effect even better. Only in this case it is imperative to control the process, otherwise the metal will overheat and may even melt.
Another secret of straightening: if the dent that needs to be leveled is small, then it is recommended to straighten it from the middle. Conversely, if the dent is large, it is aligned at the edges.
In addition to a hammer and a jack, to independently carry out this operation, you will have to arm yourself with the following tools:
Spotter, with which spot welding is carried out;
Hammers of different types: inertial, reverse and with a sharp striker;
Notching block.
Recently, it has become popular to carry out vacuum straightening. This procedure allows you to remove bruises on the metal surface many times faster. Vacuum straightening is carried out with special suction cups.
Note.This type of straightening is suitable for large dents, but if the surface is scratched, this method is not recommended.
On the "six", the following elements are most susceptible to corrosion:
Hollow parts;
Floor;
Lower zones of doors and pillars;
Welding and joining areas.
Note. The owner of a VAZ 2106 car must be extremely careful about the ingress of moisture and dirt into the zone of the hidden cavities of the body and into its lower parts. In order to additionally protect these parts of the body from the effects of corrosion, they are treated with anticorrosive material, and the adhesions of individual elements are treated with special mastic.
Here are the instructions to follow:
Put the "six" on the flyover;
Remove upholstery and all parts that interfere with work;
Water the cavities and the lower area of the machine through the drainage holes. Wash until clear water flows out;
Drive the car into an enclosed space;
Apply anticorrosive to all places indicated in the photo.

body repair = in the garage = do it yourself = transition = straightening = auto = car = rust
collective farm repair. it would be better if I changed everything to a new one, I would have removed all the wiring and the motor. Transport soils must be removed before installation, they tend to flake off with the main paint
Once after an accident I changed the muzzle on a basin like this 06 and I will tell you 1 and the last time I come across this ram on repair and welding this is a scribe bucket new iron has long been not a vase but a cooperative crap! To achieve the ideal it is necessary to run around her with obscenities so much !! So boy, I wish you strong nerves and a passing wind !! ))
And I would have put her in metal! So much work, the skin is not worth the candle! And so well done, dandy !!))
the author tell me what is the point so fooled with this car when you can buy the same but with a normal body of thousands for 40r
With a normal body, no less than a hundred square meters.
Propeller P experience is gained by the trough. does the right thing.
The point is, the first is to do it yourself, the second - I live in Ukraine, these cramps are very expensive here. And thirdly, I had a client to buy this car after repair.
Tell me please. How much does it cost ALL the bottom to digest work with materials?

The floor is carpeted with excellent sound and heat insulation properties. The VAZ 2106 has a rather bulky trunk lid and a hood with a cable lock. Chrome-plated front and rear bumpers each mount on two brackets.These parts are not interchangeable. The front seats are separate, adjustable, the backrests recline. The panel in the car's cabin contains:
various devices;
storage compartment;
shelf;
cigarette lighter;
ashtray.
The doors are two parts welded together - an outer and an inner panel. On the VAZ 2106, the front and rear doors have the same attachment to the body, rotary locks with an opening lock.
The car is equipped with polished glass: windscreen - three-layer, side and rear - hardened. The main doors have a position regulator. Swing glasses are installed in the front doors.

In the process of using a car, no matter how attentive and tidy its owner is, scratches and dents are invariably formed. Sudden changes in temperature, aggressive effects of the external environment are also enemies of the body. In order for your car to look like new, it is important to keep an eye on its appearance. Body repair VAZ 2106 includes the following types of work:
You can get rid of scratches, dents and chips yourself. Such repairs in a car service are not cheap, and manipulations with the body of the VAZ model are quite simple, which allows you to do the bodywork of a VAZ 2106 car with your own hands. This is within the power of motorists who have experience with welding and painting.
Also, tuning is a great idea. Any body parts are subject to tuning, which will change the appearance of the vehicle. Your car will look like new. When replacing any part, remember that original spare parts should be purchased from authorized dealers. They are fully consistent with those that go to the VAZ assembly line.
Original spare parts have protective branded packaging and a unique catalog number of OJSC AvtoVAZ. In addition, they are labeled by a factory-approved supplier. Original spare parts have undeniable advantages:
full compatibility;
safety;
availability;
service life guarantee;
the manufacturer's guarantee of the quality of the parts.
AvtoVAZ takes quality control of components seriously, as a result of which spare parts for VAZ 2161 from the manufacturer will provide confidence on the road and a new look for your car.
For many years of operation, almost every car gets into emergency situations, as a result of which the body is seriously damaged. As a result, the base points shift. The geometry of the body can also be violated due to irregularities on the roads, various obstacles. In such cases, its restoration is required. Only the body of a new car has an ideal state of the geometric structure.
Geometry violations can appear even during daily operation in the absence of accidents. Defects during a visual inspection of the body may not be visible, but they will entail other malfunctions. The restoration of the geometric structure of the body is rather complicated and requires special equipment.
You can check the geometry yourself. To do this, you need to measure the distance between the base points of the body. The manufacturer provides all control dimensions to the car enthusiast in a set of documentation for a new car. If you do not have this data, then you can find information on the Internet.
If, as a result of measurements, violations were identified, then it is necessary to restore the body geometry using a platform slip at the service station.

The car was bought for sale, but I immediately knew that I would do body repairs.
+ Yura V cut out. I threw the threshold on the potholders, and became. Doors look at the gaps.
Thanks! I want to change the thresholds in April, on a VAZ 2105, three years ago, put decorative trims on the thresholds and here's the result, the metal began to rot1 I bought the metal, I will cook and cut it myself, tell me, when replacing the thresholds, it is not necessary to remove the doors?

This is what the Vaz-2106 mudguard looked like.
The car in question has spent most of his life in Moscow. For six years he regularly drove his master to work, home, on vacation, in general, wherever he needed. In any weather, in summer and winter, along the heavily salted boggy Moscow streets, in the near and far abroad ...
Rusty iron from the six
After another two years or so, the car said: "That's it, I can't take it anymore - either put me down a slope, or put me in for repairs." And the car was put in for repair. Because they treated him like a family member ...
Further:
But the body ... Compared to its condition, any defective list, even five times longer, would have rested!
The TV is finally welded
Inspection of the internal cavities of the front fenders showed that almost all the boxes of the mudguard amplifiers had rotted there, and the TV (aka the front panel) could be torn off by hand (which was later done)!
Six on the tipper - the new floor reinforcers, connectors and BPM mastic on them are clearly visible
