PIC: I made a tool to help remove the rest of the dent in the drivers door on my 59 Plymouth wagon. All it is is a turnbuckle and two small angle irons welded together so once inside the door I just turn the adjustment and it forces the dent out. It just takes a small flat blade screw driver to turn it and so far it is working as over half of the sharp dent is pushed out so I haven't had to beat on it with a hammer.
