It is SOOOOOOOO easy to fix those old fenders! Dents like that are SOOOOOOOO easy compared to a late model car, omg it's fun! I wouldn't think for a millisecond to get repro new ones, omg GAG ME. The repro new ones are more work to fit than those are to repair!

They have full access from behind, hell I did stuff like that on my truck when I was 16 years old, the first metal I ever hit with a hammer was on fenders like like.

Just start studying and learn a little bit from videos and such that are around and you will do it yourself and be a friggin stud!
