Did you consider splitting the gate in half (top/bottom), hammer/dollying the damages, & welding it back up? Seems the most visible sign would be the top edge of the gate which is typically rusty anyway from stuff rubbing the paint off getting used as a work truck. Might be more work than its worth though.
Killer work here. You are a craftsman for sure.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
