For me, it would depend on how bad some of those rust spots really are. Like John said, inside doesn't look to bad. The dents can be worked out. |

looks savable to me, light rust and dings  start with an Evapo rust wash and then strip the paint then take another look

If I buy it I would like to work the dents out as much as possible to minimize filler thickness. Would you pressurize and use heat from a torch? Many thanx for the replies!

Total junk, not worth saving. Send to me for disposal.

How about using the method Tim used not too long ago with his expansion chambers - I believe filling with water and setting outside in freezing temperatures? http://kawi2strokes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=10049&p=98538&hilit=dents#p98538 |

"Stinger" or stud weld it. It works great! I use it all the time when I do collision repair where I can't get to the back of the panel. http://www.amazon.com/Stud-Welder-Dent- ... tud+welder Edit: typo |
