For that dent, if it's easy to get to both sides of the sheet metal place hardwood or metal shims on both sides of the dent then lock them together with C-clamps, or better still, a vise. It nay press the dent back out. Luckily there didn't seem to be any creases, just an indent. Let it sit overnight. Just like my last comment... At this point, what is there to lose. Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
