I would pull it out with a stud gun, not sure what tools you have access to.
It doesn't, most of it is fallen down/out. Won't be easy to get to, but punching it out is my preference. Never done one before. I'll have to measure depth.Does your car have a headliner? If not I think you could push it from inside, before using filler.
How deep is the dent? I wouldn't want any filler more than 1/8" thick, and less is better.
Another option could be to fill it with lead solder.

Yes they can, and on a leading edge a rock can turn it into a big chunk of missing materialI would do whatever it takes to push out the dent . Mickey Mouse repaires hav a habit of biting you in the rump sometime of another . BTW the dent in the stainless is repairable/replaceable . Good luck , Tom

Know anybody at a body shop. That could be pulled in 15 min or so with a stud gun. No headliner to catch fire.
Stud guns have other uses , they are also good for heat shrinking metal, moulding studs if you have those. If you plan to do all around the the car it might be worth the investment.I wish, that'd make my life much easier, lol
Problem is I want to paint it before I get the engine done, so I'll have to pay someone to come to me or borrow(rent) a trailer to get it to a body shop. And at that point, buying a stud gun would be cheaper, of course learning is 1/2 the fun, right?
Well, most of the panels have been repaired/replaced already, so this is the only dent. 3/4 quarters are new. So $200 on a stud gun is not unreasonable, still kinda sucks, then I gotta figure out how to use it, lol!Stud guns have other uses , they are also good for heat shrinking metal, moulding studs if you have those.

They are very easy to use. You'll be sticking studs all over everything just for fun!lolWell, most of the panels have been repaired/replaced already, so this is the only dent. 3/4 quarters are new.

? for ya, does the HF kit come with the T-puller?View attachment 1715024298 View attachment 1715024297 Not a big fan of HF, but the stud gun worked well. It does comes with studs and slide hammer, it does take practice holding the trigger for the right amount of weld time.
I use a 2x4 and channellocks.View attachment 1715024299 No, if I did this full time I would invest in a "Stud Buddy" or a similar device.
