Friday night I went to a strip club with five of my friends. I drove the Grand Prix >150 miles round trip loaded down with five people and was surprised to see around 12 mpg from the 455. A good time was had by all. Anyway, it seems some drunken fool hit my car in the parking lot and took off. I don't know if many of you are familiar with the 68GP body style, but in front of the rear wheelwells, behind the doors, there are large bulges(I've heard them described as jowls). This is where the person hit me. There is a 1.5-2ft dent, about 2" deep. It creased the horizontal body line and the "jowl". How can I get to the inside of the panel and what would be the best method to pound this out? Can I just take the panels and window mechanisms out on the inside? Also, hehe, I want to paint the car gloss black and not get made fun of. Thanks, Jimmy.

We're just going across the border for some french fries and gravy.
