Just had the 1950 PW delivered to my car yard the other day, and got some pictures of her.

She's mostly complete, missing Trim, and little bits (has some sort of tipping haybed in the back, it may have had a hydraulic cylinder on it at one point, buts thats long gone).

230ci, unsure about the motor, haven't tried to turn it by hand yet.
The braden winch turns freely.
windshield frame has severe rust (i've never seen a windsheild frame with rot this bad).
Front bumper has taken a few serious impacts, which is the reason for this post.

Is there an easy way to repair these twists and dents? I was considering trying to get the motor started, then tying the bumper to a big tree, and just backing up until the bumper is straight, then pounding out the dents with a sledge. or would heat be a better option (and pounding out the dents when its hot)?

thanks
