1965 C10 long bed damage how to fix

Hello
Normal I would replace the panel and call it a day. However, I am going to keep the “patina” look on the outside of the truck. I trying to figure out what’s the best way to go about fixing this rear panel. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Pete

I am facing the same thing. I have a blue and white patina truck with damage on the drivers side bed side at the rear. I am going to remove the bed side and hammer and dolly it out as straight as I can,then put the bed side back on. A few small dents and dings go with the patina look

This is the best option to go with unless you want to repaint....

I would just leave the love on there

As mentioned , if you do anything , you ll be distrubing the metal which would lead to priming and paint
