Tough to see from the picture how mangled the basic shape is. How does the lid sit against a straight/correct body? Meaning, is the whole thing bent or just the outer skin? John

I'd be fitting it up to the car, so you know what you have to start with. Depending on how it looks you might need to unstitch the left side, to get it back in shape, or you could get away with welding some studs and pulling it.
It's doable, I hade to unstitch mine completely for rust repair, but I have a one year only 69.
