Well, it's been a while since I've had a chance to post any updates.....
This was the dent that worried me the most on the body -
ended up with a bit of hammer & dolly work and a bit of heat I could get it 90% out. A bit of body filler and it'll be all good (this is just a daily driver after all). The photo seems to make it look worse than it is after straightening it a bit, the body line is back to being good, just needed a bit of filler below it.
broken spot welds on the drivers door - not really sure why this would have happened.
bit of welding & grinding and it's good to go
