It wasn't really a restoration, just getting it mostly back in shape.
I use all the wrong things. My hands, Plastic salad containers, lubricant, ice, a dollar store rubber mallet, hatchet, a television stand, live chickens, a coffee mug...
...only one of those things I actually have not used to remove dents.

Sounds like the same way I fix them. Amazing what you can do with a couple of rubber mallets from Harbor Freight.
