18 months wasn't much of a challenge. The big dents on this one should make you work a little harder, and create less Samba time.  Fortunately, you're already experienced in T-34's, so that should make it go quicker (definitely quicker than Scott's).
Take lots of pics, you know we love pics.

I for one would really really love to see what exactly it takes to get this thing straight...!
Hope to see some details of what techniques are used to perform the magic..
Are you _sure_ you don't want to just start with one full of gaping rust holes?
It would be a LOT easier that way!

1. Remove gas cap.
2. Roll another car under it.
3. Installation is the reverse of removal
4. Drink beer (or Patron).
