The rear quarter panel of my Volvo 240 looks like someone has leaned on it and pushed in the body line a little bit. It's caused ripples from about the top of the rear wheel arch to half way back along the quarter panel. I've rapped on it with a body hammer and dolly and I've straightened it a quite a bit but now I'm at the point of not wanting to beat on it any more for fear of making it worse.
I'm wondering if I should give up now and start on filling it, but the filler might be as thick as 1/4" in places and I'm not feeling too good about that.
I have a pretty good dent on the drivers door too that will need some thick (maybe even more than 1/4") filler to flatten.
Any tips or ideas on this? Should I keep on beating on it to try and get the panel straighter?
Hard to take pics that show the real extend of the dents and ripples.
