Subject:      dent pulling
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

The friendly tree removal "expert" my wife hired accidently landed a big
branch on my Vanagon :-(  The branch put a good sized dent both below
and to the rear of the plastic engine vent grille on the back left side
of the van.  Has anyone had any experience pulling or hammering dents
from this part of their van?  The grille can obviously be removed but
that doesn't look like it gives enough room to get a hammer back their.
Is this accesible from inside the van without ripping apart the liner?
Also, the dent below the grille goes right across the sharp crease on
the body work there which looks like it will make pulling/hammering this
area pretty tricky.  Any advise would be greatly appreciated as long as
it doesn't involve harming the tree expert.  BTW I have virtually no
experience with body work and want to stay away from Bondo.
