I worked at a heavy collision repair facility for 12 years doing classic vehicle body restoration, but did use gauges for certain structural repair measurements. Lasers have replaced gauges and are far more accurate.
I borrowed a set of gauges when I replaced the entire trunk floor in my Camaro, but retained the original frame rails.
