I wish you the best of luck palming the dent out, I'm off to the gas station, going to fill a five gallon can full of 87 octane, set it under a phone booth and fly my *** to the moon.

ill put it to you like this i've been a body man for about 15 years and its really hard to look at a picture and estimate time its gonna take to do a repair of that size. you need to drop the bumper and pull that taillight out to see just how bad the damage is. with the way the quarter is crushed around the tail light i would bet that the tail light pocket is pushed in a little and the lower quarter is probably pushed in as well. if i was to write that estimate it would have 2 hours of pull time and 14 hours to straighten the quarter. anyone who tells you they can do it any other way is either smoking crack or there not gonna give you a quality repair.

Thanks for the info. I already have a nice Camaro. Sad to see that car sit for three years. The best info given is that everyone recommends repairing and not replacing. I was thinking of fixing and repainting it blue.If the owner sells it to me. Maybe it should be parted out. I saw a bad azz Camaro on ebay. Highest bid $4,500. Seller wanted $11,000.00.
