Just but this Celica, has about a foot by foot dent in the front left fender, to the left of the wheel, how can i get this dent out? I'd rather not buy and paint a replacement. Also, how do I fix a bad scratch with some rust on it. I can get pics up asap. Other than that, this car is decent

actually i have heard from a few old timers that if you heat up the dents with a small butane torch then dowse it with some dry ice the small hail damage will pop out....do not burn your paint or else it's useless. and yes it will probably work
